And why not do both? I take advantage of the delegation projects and also do manual curation (including in the FC community, where I have a curator who does manual curation), rewarding both posts and comments. Again, it's just a different way to distribute votes which would be given out regardless. I have no qualms about where the votes are currently going. I can see the content upvoted by each of these projects.

Now, I'll refer back to another point I made in my post:

(See attached screen snip)

Keep in mind that most of the users that use the delegation projects are, in fact, newer ones (i.e. accounts that are not 6-7 years old). They stand to benefit the most from them because they're starting off with a disadvantage of not being among the first people here. It's not a bad thing to give them a small boost if it's going to result in them becoming more active.

If we're going to actually do some math, the impact of the totality of the older users' HP far exceeds that of the delegation projects. We're talking about multiple millions of HP with the older users versus maybe 1-2 million HP from the delegation projects. There is plenty of "correction" that could theoretically be done on the posts created by the old guard, if you're going to do this in an honest manner. How about addressing this before you start going after the much smaller projects?

Or... just let everyone be. Nobody's hurting from the small impact of these projects, and based on their total HP, there isn't going to be any damage to Hive for a very long time - likely long after we've expired.
