Not to sound blunt, but answering your question on the downvotes (which you probably didn’t deserve, especially without reply).

The concept of an importance score feels very centralized and against the federated / free nature of the site. Towards what end?

If the “importance score” impacts curation, I am strongly against it. Not only is it icky, but how is it different than a function of popularity?
