get rid of "more spr = higher score"?
It's a tricky issue but going back to the principles of alt coins: they're experimental and not a money machine in the sense that they need to provide a profit. Profits are nice but unless there's a business behind the coin, they're nothing short of incomplete.
Point in case: never invest what you're not prepared to lose...
In my opinion, Service Nodes are exactly that: providing a service. The service is to support the coin network and the network transactions. Why not have a performance system that allows weak links to be eliminated?
Nodes providing faster service, more secure servers, more funds to perform payments, let those earn more! It's not about equality for all, it's not about distributing coins! It's about investing in infrastructure and getting rewarded for the RISK!
Can't wait to test the SPR Service Nodes.
My 2 cents

my sentiments EXACTLY ...
i have been preaching the same verse in all counts of the crypto world since my ( and those involved ) first foray into the cryptocurrency mining and trade ...
ie - 'Point in case: never invest what you're not prepared to lose...'
those 2 cents that you have put in are worth substantially more than that

...
especially when these servicenodes are active ...
