I don’t think it’s a good idea to write things expressing opinions like this as if you’re presenting the majority view, even when you think it is. I for one completely disagree with the first paragraph, and would only like transparency wrt deletions if it was unobtrusive.

If it’s not actually the majority view then people will downvote it or at least upvote it less. I don’t think you understand how karma systems work.
