I don't really see a problem if someone doesn't want to receive likes. You can disable the notifications, I can also assume an option on your side not to show it at all.
But, done this way, you can force the whole protocol and all other apps to remove it, I don't like that.
I don't like forcing, it's like when you mute someone is perfect. I think the current system is more convenient, you just don't hear them but you don't restrict their freedom to continue trolling 🤣🤣
