You may well be right but it's more work. Presenting facts ONLY via
feedback seems easy. No judgement of the seller is implied.
The TOS (which I posted a link to just now) talks of feedback extortion.
I think if no communication is made, no charge of extortion could be
made. There isn't anything I personallly want from the seller... but
still.

Hmm... I see your point (and maybe we're veering into market.theory
areas), but what is bad about neutral feedback, per se? it's not
NEGATIVE... merely not positive.
