At first, I was a bit more reluctant in regards to killing a gauge. However, I am in favor of killing this specific gauge because of the concerns that @SmallCapScience has raised in the general discussion thread
Certain entities are diluting BAL value (even for themselves) in a pool of a „unhealthy“ governance token. Therefore, we should protect our users and our protocol accordingly. That’s why we have this mechanism in place.
In hindsight, we need to be much more careful in which gauges we will approve / send to a vote.
Furthermore, the soon to be activated core pool mechanism should create a positive flywheel and I rather see the BAL wasted on CREAM distributed to useful liquidity.
