EOS Remove Producer: Subscriber Comment Changed My View

As a result of a comment from 2kings3queens I decided to change my opinion on the rmvproducer function that came up in my interview with Rob Konsdorf from EOS Detroit. Support the EOS Tips channel by sending an EOS Tip to this EOS account: chrisjsconey

I also agree with your change of opinion as another consideration is that token holders are not exercising their votes as much in these initial phases. Last time I saw, only about 30% of token holders have voted for block producers. This is like due to people not knowing how, not trusting the process, or just holding the asset for trading. Therefore, I think it would be to the benefit of the protocol that the block producers handle these issues.

Yes, I agree with you. I'm not comfortable with the voting process and exactly which BPs to vote for. I'm not seeing any reason why I should vote for one BP rather than another one.

Whilst I agree this function is necessary it opens up a lot of questions.
If the BP is deactivated what is the path to recovery?
Once deactivated all votes likely lose weight.
How are voters alerted that BP XYZ has been removed and one of your votes is no longer valid?

So many considerations.
