So basically if you want the euthanization to happen, you could shop for the right assessors to agree with you, and pay them enough. Seems broken.

This swipe left and right for more articles design is terrible. It interferes with the ability to swipe in the browser to go forward and back in your history. Is this a new design trend?

No, this "trend" has been happening for 15+ years unfortunately.

The Internet peaked in the late 2000s.
