I am for it, but not in a "single vote" form. I'd rather want to see "point-based" vote, as suggested in https://steemit.com/brainstrom/@clayop/brainstroming-new-design-for-voting-power

I'm sorry to say but if you are for it ( in whatever form) then you don't understand the implication . If people can use full power in 1 single vote they will write one post per day and give all the money to themselves.
The fact that currently users need to upvote 200 post to use their full power is what protects the whole system against self-voting.

Small clarification here: You currently only need to upvote 40 posts per day. It is 200, but over a 5-day recharge period. The proposal is to reduce that somewhat. I don't know what number would be used by 10 has been suggested.

I don't even think self-voting is all that bad anyway. Overall the linear curve makes the system a lot more like tipping. Assuming everyone voted, what your votes would be doing is assigning is a share of the redistribution of your own stake. So if you don't see anything going on that you believe adds enough value to want to redistribute your stake, then as far as I'm concerned go ahead and keep it. Let people bring more value or make a more compelling presentation if they want to earn, rather than constant shitposts just because, well, something has to get the money. No it doesn't.

I think that's incorrect. I did a test yesterday and upvoted 65 times ( full power) and my upvoting power went from 100% to 72% and got fully recharged when i woke up 12 hours later.

You are missing another important point. What you said can happen but it cannot always regarding other's behaviors(downvote) too. The important point is that linearity makes others participation easier and reducing bot effects.

Nobody is going to waste their voting power to downvote random people that upvoted their own work and even if they did that's not the kind of system we want to promote where everyone downvote because everyone upvote themselves. It creates a very toxic atmosphere. Linearity has very little to do with self-voting, I have explained multiple times how the curve does nothing to prevent self voting.
The problem you want to solve is a non issue, hardly no one has ever complained about bots having supposedly and edge over manual curator, however if the single vote limit is increased then we create a self-voting and vote concentration problem which will discourage curators and users to diversify their votes and vote for other content than theirs.
