The third worst, ironically, is the one complaining about the problem
Why is that ironic? No solutions are presented. No value is generated. An individual starting a company or hacking on a problem does not grow as a result of having read the story. It is self-referential, self-aggrandizing, and as you point out, among the worst entries in the derby.
It sounds as if vote-weighting has a good deal of merit, based solely on the three pieces of evidence presented.
