RE: Its time for STINC to actually support communities on this platform.
I hear you and I do agree it would be good to see some of this whale SP getting put into communities.
I thought that Steemit had made a pledge somewhere about not using it's own stake for voting.
I haven't seen the pledge you refer to, but I do believe the Steemit account is used for payments of some kind, perhaps Steemit employees(?), as they are regularly transferring STEEM from the central account to others before dispersing them.
The corporate accounts, which would seem to be Steemit, Steem, and Misterdelegation, all appear to be serving specific functions. Now, Steemit's account doesn't necessarily need SP if it's making payments in STEEM or SBD, but the Steem account is delegating to new users and misterdelegation is, well, delegating to mainly the d-apps, all of which are being used to by different members who can end up on any of the platforms in the ecosystem. These d-apps were, at least, offering some pretty generous bot votes for their users' content, so whether or not it's deemed appropriate, some distribution has been happening there.
