It does discourage downvoting, which is a great feature of the community. But I would have to disagree about encouraging upvoting.

There's a clear incentive for commenting. You get CCP, and CCP gives you upvotes and downvotes. Awesome! Now instead, a user logs on and has only so many upvotes he can give. For giving one, he promotes something he's already seen. Then... nothing? Why should he spend any on anyone's post? There's no incentive for upvoting, and a limit is somewhat of a deterrence as well.

I think the main issue here in what you're describing is we don't have enough established voters. As more and more people become able to vote as much as they want, this will become less and less of an issue. At least, that's my opinion. It wasn't really that hard to get 20 points on here.
