Thank you for the feedback on this and the impact changing the wording has here. We want to be sure that copy is clear, concise, and useful and this seems like a change we need to discuss more before making changes. We also realize that, as a text-based platform with complex systems, precise wording is necessary to ensure proper usage of tooling. We'll keep this in mind for wording changes in the future.

The motivation to update the voting tooltip copy was to improve its tone and provide additional clarity against the new Reactions test. The intention was not to downplay the value of research effort or change voting criteria, which was an oversight on our part. This was considered a general copy improvement and wasn’t flagged internally as something that might be problematic so we’re rolling back to the original copy today and decided we can revisit any copy changes around voting when we’re specifically focused on that area and build in more time for feedback.
