That's not the fault of people, it's the fault of the UX design. Because psychologically, the most natural interpretation is Like/Dislike.

In addition, while using it as a Like/Dislike can cause valid opinions to be lost when it comes to comments, it's far more useful at the thread level, where you do want thread positions to be based on what the users of that thread want to see versus don't want to see.

However, someone else made an alternate suggestion, which is to have 4 arrows instead of 2.

One set covers Like/Dislike, while the other set covers Relevant/Not Relevant. I'm not sure that applies on the thread level, but it might be a nice enhancement for comments.
