Its purpose is to evaluate sharing mechanics, participant quality and downstream value without rewarding manipulation; it must expose raw shares can reward spam or low-quality incentives and protect spam; incentive abuse; privacy; negative sentiment; low retention rather than present assumptions as commitments.
