I’ve been doing a lot of ‘overall’ voting based on “all things considered, am I happy this comment exists?” or “would I like to see more comments like this in the future?” and ‘agreement’ voting on specifically “do I endorse its contents?”
For a non-charged example, I upvoted Duncan’s comment suggesting that the buttons be swapped, because I think that a good kind of feedback to give on an experiment, and voted disagree on it because I don’t think swapping would have the effect he thinks it would have.
Another example: if two people are having a back and forth where they seem to remember different things, I’ll normal vote for both of them because I’m glad they’re hashing it out, but I won’t agree/disagree with any of them because I don’t have any inside information on what happened.
