Yes, I understand  that it could be a useful tool for the cases you mention though it may be used just to harm someone else. It must be really annoying to keep downzapping posts just for the sake of harming.

I think downzapping should be reserved for malicious posts like spam, plagiarism, ai slop, etc. 

However, it is just a tool and everyone gets to choose how they want to use it.
