Making upvotes a limited resource means that there will be fewer upvotes in total, and slower karma gains, and thus each point of karma that one gets will be more meaningful, and a stronger incentive to 'do more like that'.

Kind of like how if you have an income of $10,000/week, $1 doesn't mean much, but if your income is more along the lines of $500/week, $1 is much more significant.
