As Normal Anomaly said, I forgot to explicitly measure people who didn’t want the post to be top-level; I put the instructions on each comment so that you only had to see one to know the other one was there, but see how that would be confusing when you saw the child. I posted the ‘Psst.’ comment when the parent/child got unequal absolute karma counts because I didn’t know how that would happen.
Normal Anomaly: Your system seems superior, but I’m wondering why you’re saying to downvote the karma dump comment iff you don’t want the post to be top-level. Wouldn’t the same post function as an effective dump if you did want the post to be top-level?
Currently, there are two “upvote this if your position is X” posts, each with a corresponding Karma balance. Traditionally there need be only one karma balance, but the poll was set up by two different people. If somebody upvotes my poll comment, they should downvote my karma balance. If somebody upvotes your poll comment, they should downvote your karma balance.

That was right. This shouldn’t ever happen in polls, but it frequently does anyway.
