I’d be surprised if people are using agree votes for that rather than upvotes

I see, I misinterpreted agree-voting, though I wouldn't be surprised if people used it as for of supplemental vote, but think that behavior is less common. I think the agree-votes on the original were mostly "I believe this [J. Huang resigned] really, in fact, happened" (what mattmacdermott stated earlier).
The comment's getting karma downvoted. Perhaps people are thinking "This comment is overpriced at +27 karma so I'll downvote to a more appropriate +22, but since it's factually correct I'll counterbalance my karma downvote with an agree-vote".
Karma conversations aren't terribly high value and I vote we end the discussion here, even if the reasons for votes remain mysterious.
