Personally, I think SO was correct in saying that reason was not strong enough to be valid. Even if the weight rule was largely underutalized, it was still a nessecarry precaution to prevent new users from effecting the vote too much in the case of a major vote.

The point also defeats itself, as this vote is now considered a major change and the point in question critiques the underuse of the rule regarding major changes. Of course it wasn't a major change in the beginning, but now that it is the validity of that point is even less than before. That's why we've moved on to the other point of fairness, as they are much more complex and interesting to discuss about.
