Upvotes indicate agreement or approval, which doesn’t need to be explained as thoroughly as disagreement (which usually involves having separate, alternative ideas in your head different from the ideas of the one you are disagreeing with)

Whether upvotes need to be explained overall is not relevant to my comment, as I’m talking about the specific considerations named by Noah Birnbaum.
