How does this system solve that? Comments still have vote counts and reactionary comments still make it to the top of threads, there's just no visible count of total aggregated votes.
You're correct, the entire system is already in place. The only thing that is currently missing is adding up all of someone's 'karma' from their their posts and having it shown on their profile. Some of the apps already have this implemented since it's easy to incorporate.
That's not the only thing that's missing. A total upvote count on my profile page wouldn't be the problematic element that Reddit has. I would welcome a total upvote count on my profile page.
