I 100% agree, but I do not see the bots going away anytime soon, but hopefully as more real people join... they will be able to drowned out the bots.

I think so, the incentive system, rewards for curation and participation also called the attention ecconony by other platform developers is interest. Was listening to a talk by Sam Kazemian, CEO of everipedia earlier, think he described it as being as complex as designing blockchain delegation and voting, something along those lines anyway.
