Might not this lead to the even more low-sat posts teaching the top of the front page?
If the impact of the a zap is reduced in a posts rank, doesn't that mean the other factors will play a heavier role? So a post with many comments but few zaps becomes even more likely to reach the top of the front page in relation to a post with higher zaps but few comments? (Or I could be completely backward on this).
Increasing the relative value of comments seems like a win -- generating conversation seem like a great example of adding value.

Oh for sure. We plan to do this and have done a crap job so far.

No, I don’t think so unless I’m missing something.

Yes, if zap impact is reduced, other factors (mostly trust right now) would have a higher impact.
