The main issue isn’t that downvoting isn’t good enough but that we don’t want to terribly damage the signal to noise ratio. Thus, we don’t want massive amounts of spam or trolling in threads, even if it has been downvoted. But this argument is fairly weak. If users could be banned without having comments deleted that would solve the primary problem.
