Periodic confirmation - design

It feels as though this is being ignored, but I’m curious why nobody has addressed the increased probability of a 51% attack when you start removing voting power from the system?

The grand majority of voting power is followees, under a set & forget model, therefor it’s not unreasonable to expect a substantial percentage of voting power to be “temporarily eliminated” from the NNS - directly inflating the proportional voting power of active participants.

Why choose to enable this in contrast to just removing followees in alignment with the original design?
