I think I agree with every one of these sentences! Were you in disagreement with something I wrote?

The tug-of-war between upvotes and flags is always happening on HN and is a core part of how the software and the community function.

No disagreement. Not asking for anything to change. Just trying to understand the flagging phenomenon.

Given that there is no way to downvote a story the way that one can downvote a comment, perhaps some people use flagging as a way to "downvote" stories.
