It's very nice to see that X people liked a post/comment and Y people disliked it instead of just having a singular "goodness/badness" rating. It (literally, in a mathematical sense) adds a whole new dimension to post ratings and gives us a more nuanced understanding of people's opinions. Plus, it feels a lot better to see that 5 people agreed with you and 7 disagreed when you made a controversial statement instead of just seeing a score of -1 telling you how bad you are.

Some people can't see the difference, but a comment with +4 could be a 1004/1000 or a 4/0 and there's a world of difference there.

It's like Fallout New Vegas's rep system.
