I have a simple solution for this: I never look at the Best Nodes of the Day list. If I log in perl monks, I can see all nodes posted in a day (via Recently Active Threads), and I think it's better if I read those whose topics I like, than the "Best" ones even if they're about a topic I'm completely uninterested in.

I do sometimes read the Best Nodes of the Week, Month, or Year list, but nodes in these don't usually tend to be clustered in a thread, or if they are, there's a reason.

So, whether such a change is implemented or not to the Best Nodes of the Day is completely irrevelant. However, I suggest you don't do it for the Best Nodes of the Week as nodes from the same thread do give me extra information.
