I cannot understand the meaning of some downvotes

In my opinion, downvoting some kinds of posts is meaningless. 

For example, why should anyone downvote a bug report, like [this post](https://meta.codidact.com/q/277379)? If someone has the same problem, they can upvote the bug report; otherwise, they can skip it. Quite the contrary, I think bug report posts should be heavily upvoted to encourage other users to report bugs of the system.

Another example, why should anyone downvote a community proposal, like [this post](https://meta.codidact.com/q/277345)? If someone is interested in contributing to such a community, they can upvote the proposal; otherwise, they can skip it. Now, if I dislike a subject (or do not like to contribute to a proposed community) and see that there is some proposal covering the subject, then I should downvote the proposal?!
