I think I would favor a change to the boards that would require all downvotes to have a comment with them.

I downvoted this and the grandparent, in accord to the "I would like to see fewer comments like this" downvoting policy. I do not believe that mwengler benefited from me making this explicit in a comment.

I was incorrectly presuming a somewhat more complex standard than pure incoherent preference. And so I have benefited from seeing the reason made explicit. Thank you.
