Should Rep Requirements for Actions be lowered on lower-traffic SE-Family sites?

Take a look at Server Fault. Only 17 Users, 2 Moderators, and 4 Admin/Developers can vote to close.

I don't know where Meta will be more popular or less popular than Server Fault, but would there be value in lowering the rep requirements for actions? I'm most specifically interested in Close and Open votes. Those are the votes that most guide the community - defining what is and isn't appropriate. Until the community itself is making them, it's up to the moderators to wield the heavy stick. And I'm wondering about the judgement call cases.

Should Meta, SF, or both, have lower rep limits?
