Not at all. All the true quality folks are welcome to skip this answer, you probably won't like it, as this is pretty emotional, and not so much focusing on the aspects the quality folks uphold. 

Thing is: gamification is still a large factor that drives this network. Many people that contribute a lot of content do that to hunt reputation, and badges. 

Sure, I would love to make *more* from asking questions. But changing that part of the system would also change "the physics" of the game. 

I do dislike various aspects of the those "game physics", but well, that is what we have here. Same rules for everybody, 10 years ago, 5 years ago, today. Changing that part would *feel* like tilting the game. Leading to "subtle" questions, like:

- Would old questions be "re-counted", including daily limit scores and whatnot? 
- Would it just mean that people starting now get that benefit? 

Seriously, I try to contribute high quality input on stack overflow, but the game part is an essential part of that. Screwing with that will definitely impact the motivation of this top 0.03% contributor, and I *think* that I am not alone with that.
