Probably better to post in the github issue rather than replying here.

I vote for public votes. Your comments, history and activity is already public, what can you gain from "hidden" votes as much as privacy?

seems trivial to check for a login/subscribed etc. then increment up//down votes. why link each vote to an account in public? maybe for mods an account(s) to be banned for botting votes?

They say twitter shows public voting but I thought Musk just anonymized likes on twitter because it was getting transphobes in trouble?

They basically already are, if you run an instance. Might as well make it easier.
