No, you misunderstand the purpose of Bugzilla voting.

No, that's not it at all.

I meant precisely what I said, no more, no less:  it makes ZERO sense to 
squelch Fedora users' feedback.  Fedora leaders are saying "no feedback 
on fedora-devel" and "no feedback on the bugzilla", and now, no Bugzilla 
voting.

Bugzilla voting was created precisely so that users could raise the 
profile of a bug and register their voice, without adding actual noise 
to the discussion.  Similar to "like" links on Facebook.

Fedora users -- keep on voting, that is why the feature exists.
