I think capping likes is like capping letters in the alphabet or words.
Likes are an expressive signifier that tend to support the virtual trust needed for polite discourse. (I heard it.)

I don’t go to conventions due to the expense, so I have no frame of reference here.

Seems sometimes like someone is always irritated about something … like a cranky shire barrister in the 1070s who grew up speaking flawless Old English.
