Probably better to post in the github issue rather than replying here.

What’s the difference from users though?

Imagine you have 500 users that consisently upvote each other and 500 users that vote randomly on different posts. If you jumble up those 500+500 in 1000 random hashes, it becomes impossible to distinguish who is part of the voting ring and who isn't.

Hence why I gave a solution. It would simply become spam that should be handled by the instance where it originates from.
