Ma yes! There is an inbalance, but still, where else posting this idea would pay you ANYTHING. On the other hand lending SP is a good way to empower small time creators. For example i have an old acc, so i had "a lot" of SP half of which i give out to @maddieseal cause i find her genuenly interesting. BOOM, done, she has an easier ride to the top, and an insentive to post.
Maybe we cannot overtake the whales, but we can grow with the platform!
