The problem with doing up/down is mostly just that this is hard to combine with the bigger arrows we use for strong-votes. If you just rotate them naively, the arrows stick out from the comment when strong-voted, or we have to add a bunch of padding to the comment to make it fit, which looks ugly and reduces information density.

what if you rotate the arrows’s icons to icon-up, icon-down, but don’t move them into a vertical column?
