I'm quite confident that this metric is already in place. It wouldn't be very difficult though, if it isn't.

It may be, but if so users should be told.

The fear seems to be that going into specifics would enable the manipulators to dodge detection...but if we are specific enough, what means are they left with. "Oh, I guess I'll just downvote him whenever I see him!" But isn't that organic, and therefore acceptable? Setting specific boundaries will at least reduce the severity of manipulation if it won't outright do away with it, while giving innocent users a clear understanding of what they can and cannot do.
