Thanks for raising this. Zapping is definitely affected by this and it'll be more affected once the shift is done.
For the world T20 Cricket Pool and Olympics Pool I zapped the rewards. That was easier and better.
For the whole day if there aren't any boosts the rewards by zaps hardly reach 15k but before they used to easily climb 30k to 50k. Zapping is the soul of SN and I believe that a moderate system would be better. Also, when you zap any post or comment, you always intend to zap the OP not the territory owners.
I do think additional revenue for territory founders is helpful but it shouldn't be at the expense of overall experience and ability for the site to grow and bring in new users. Ultimately territories will become much more successful if the amount of stackers, items, zaps 10x as opposed to getting additional share of a small pool of fees.
