An imperfect system doesn't mean we need to throw out the whole system. And if we did throw it out, you can't just not have a replacement for it.

People making posts on the Internet is not equivalent to real people meeting and being forced to at least give an answer.

Forced to give an answer like when they abstain?

That's still an answer. We actively know they chose to abstain rather than passively. Still better than radio silence from "the Internet"
