I had no idea that there was a "disadvantage" to voting on comments as opposed to posts although I knew about the timing thing.

There is a curve (similar to the 5 minute curation one in some respects) where there is a loss of vote power up until ~16 HIVE payout. I suspect for me, it has likely accumulated to about 50-80 HIVE a week in value lost.

I doubt the changes will change my behaviour much except to maybe check if I'm still autovoting on anything.

Depends on which you use, but by now you should probably have checked. Autovoting itself isn't the issue in this case and I will continue to vote on authors I like this way - it is the blind autovoting that is the issue, the kind that doesn't care who or what it votes on, as long as it maximizes return.
