However, we took a conscious decision to use the watch facility exclusively, despite the extra costs (bandwidth and resources) that it creates for us. This is because the watch list gives us a single measurement of how important a ticket is to our community, which is very easy for us to query. Furthermore, there is no ambiguity about its definition, which would exist if voting was enabled.
