My ratio of non-flagged vs. flagged/downvoted comments is still rather high. I don't control why other HN users dislike what I have to say but I'm consistent.
We're not looking at ratios but rather at absolute numbers, the same way a toxicologist would be interested in the amount of mercury in a person's system (rather than its ratio to other substances consumed); or a judge in how many banks one has robbed (rather than the ratio of that number to one's non-crimes).
