The old tyrant may be gone, but new ones are standing in line.
Can you honestly say that when you read RHP you only see 10 posts in 30 days that may deserve a rec?
Also, wouldn't you like to accumulate some recs for the wonderful posts you provide in Help and Site Ideas and any given forum?
The reason it was taken down was that some user was unable to get a rec for anything, and was jealous and Russ was just dumb enough to think they weren't a whining crying weak spirited user with fragile sensibilities hiding behind 'good intentions'.

P-
Russ - dumb enough...? Please...
Russ is God at this site. Everything Russ does is right, until he change his mind, then the new thing is right. I am here of this belief!
I use my 10 rec with caution. We are thousands of members here at this site. A posting good enough can get 10s of thousands of recommendations!

Well, if there are 200 forum users who subscribe, that would make the max recs for a post 200. Not all that many posts got over 20 recs in the old system IIRC.
Whatever the reasoning, the forums were without doubt more entertaining then. Regardless of who and why they were being rec'd.

My opinion is that without restrictions there can be a sudden inflation of recommendations, one new tyrant, and da-da. With restrictions, the recs are expencive to throw away just for fun.
But this is not a big issue for me. I just state my opinion. I don't want to fight for it. I have mine, you have yours.
