I personally think that this is a great compromise for an experiment.

Apologies for not being able to give proper feedback, I (still, sorry) didn't read into the code, so my feedback isn't worth much.

Fair. 

For our No Trust experiment, I'm leaning toward removing trust from ranking but continuing to use trust in rewards. I'll also tweak trust to have this sliding time window.

The hypothesis being that sybil resistance of zaps should keep ranking healthy and using trust in rewards should prevent this sybil recoup by not having the sybil fee/sacrifice be a direct input to rewards.
