Actually it's very acceptable to me, if there was a way to stop being
listed in razor, there would be nothing stopping the spammers from doing
it as well.  That's why most people use Razor as an indicator, not as
a 100% guaranteed "is this spam"?  But you can't control what people do.

This is, again, all part of distributed spam filtering systems.  You get
FPs, you get malicious reports ...  That's the goal of the trust system.
Can a person inflate their trust then become malicious?  Sure, but a
truly malicious person will always find a way to accomplish their goal.
TeS is meant to deal with the accidental reports and the, well, stupid
people (don't want to unsubscribe, etc.)
