The “karma” concept results in unpopular or somewhat uneducated comments being removed from discussion, which I do not consider desirable.
This isn’t really true. Long conversations routinely spring from downvoted comments. Karma helps ensure high quality comments and helps me know when I’m on the right track and when I’m being stupid. It absolutely helps with discussion and I doubt the place would be the same without it.
