I may not understand this proposal, but... I think the current system of comments starting at +1 is good because people react badly to negative numbers and zero. That self-vote counting for total karma is bad, but that is easily fixed by subtracting 1 before computing total karma.
I don't see any reason why karma couldn't be calculated based on votes, disallowing self votes, but the default comment score be something other than 0.
