I think sites would benefit from having more rich voting options, for example: agree but weak-argument, disagree but well-stated, changed my view, etc.
Would yield some more interesting ways to sort and rank comments.
So basically, like Facebook Reactions and those post ratings plugins you can get for various forum scripts now.
Yeah, I think that would work. Especially if 'disagree' is a neutral reaction rather than a negative one, so downvoting for disagreement stops being a thing.
