- I add the external links to the product incase voters arent quite sure what each product is. For things like the iPad that are "well known" I agree, its extra and may be distracting, but if the question was about two different motherboards, as a voter I would probably need to look at a product page to make a informed vote.
- I was hoping the "Optionally, explain why you voted the way you did" would let folks know it optional, but you do have a point in that many people dont "read" when on a page. I was hoping putting the comment box under the buttons and the arrow would help people realize its an option, but not required.
- I have the just view results because I would (as a question asker) have people that don't have insight on the answer not vote rather than toss up a "bogus" vote just to see the results.
That being said, i think you have some valid points in around optimizing the page. I really appreciate the feedback.
Very much appreciate the feedback!
