Isn't that already the (desired) standard for upvotes, though? To promote high quality content, regardless of whether we agree with it nor not? I'm still not quite sure of the intended difference between them.

No, that's not the HN standard. HN overtly endorses downvoting disagreements (I don't like that, but it is what it is).
