Probably better to post in the github issue rather than replying here.
No, votes should not be displayed public.
Blocking those who downvote creates further polarisation, echo chambers and an environment more hostile to discussion and honest exchange.

Maybe the upvotes should only be available to the person who owns the comment or post. Maybe to the mods and admins, too?
