Please give me more down vote, I do not care in fact.
There is a reason why upvote exists. It pushes good discussion top. If you are worrying about space complexity: good news! HN is using a modern database, not flat file. You can store 10k comments.
And downvoting helps push bad comments down, which is by design.
