Zaps are the zero emotion way of exchanging value for a post. Removing the react would turn nostr gray and dull. Not all value can be represented by sats.
For the user who wishes to conserve their sats and still send their regards, reacts are tool for them. Just like an interaction in person, you don't give someone a dollar for making you smile. The reaction is by itself the reward.

Some just haven't come to appreciate the breadth of expressions that can be conveyed through reactions

Sats reside forever on chain. But emotions reside forever in the mind. Sometimes a smile sent for free is worth more than a fortune on sats.

I agree, likes still have a place. The difference is on nostr they're in their proper place.
I agree that likes are perfectly implemented here.
The fact that you can use various emojis makes a world of difference. Even a series of likes on a single note can convey a message, much like a comment but with more flair.

Agreed!
True and greatly put
Iβm just happy we donβt have up/down votes or counts, that shit is useless and can be divisive and misleading.
