Changing the curves of the referendums that were affected by extended confirmation periods:
Since the confirmation period was extended to 7 days it can be used as an opportunity for people to snipe vote no against a referendum during confirmation and basically abort it without giving it time for other people to vote in favor.
This problem was less apparent when the confirmation period was 24 hours because the window of opportunity for sniping a no was much shorter.
The reason confirmation period should exist is simply to avoid people waiting the last day of the referendum to vote yes to basically snipe a yes since 24 hours is a short time and some people may not notice and not vote against in time.
The problem is that 7 days confirmation while being a useful protection against yes sniping becomes an opportunity for no sniping.
It also slows down the process of the referendum even more than it was before.
I think the right procedure should be to adjust the curves to account for the new extended confirmation.
So instead of being able to pass with just 50%+ and any amount of support on day 28th this should happen on day 21 so that it can enter into confirmation on day 21 in the worst case scenario and then the 7 days of confirmation cannot be used for sniping because even if it is aborted the timer is still running until day 28 allowing people to then vote yes instead of aborting permanently
The same should be done for medium spender where the confirmation now stands at 4 days so on day 24 of the curve the level of support required should be zero and the threshold should be just about 50%+ so that the last 4 days of confirmation overlap with the last 4 days of the 28 days period
