I have seen that comments already in the post and this reason to downvote is like a joke. Downvote is power given to us that we should use when find someone posting spam or abusing the system. 
There is no such condition that one has to use it. Its completely user's decision to use it or not and like the same we we do with upvote. No should force anyone to use DV and just because user is not using downvote then no DV should be given to that user.

I personally think this kind of acts will harm our blockchain where even freedom is not given to choose. Can we expect mass adoption this way? I am promoting steem with all my friends and relatives but if this trend continues then I would have to stop promotion this will not be helpful for our platform and community.

As you mentioned we are already a small community and if we need to grow then we have to move beyond all this things and do something productive for Steem rather than harming our own blockchain. 

Thanks @crypto.piotr for raising your voice against it and I hope more people would come forward to support and to stop this downvote abuse.
