I have always disliked that assumption, it assumes too close of a correlation between "content someone wants to read" and "content someone will upvote". I would add to your list that it biases content towards posts that have popular opinions that the majority thinks are minority opinions.
It fits well with how people act and it fits well with what people complain about in the comments. Hard to measure though. Although if something as rough as scroll logging can still make an improvement I'm sure you could find something rough along these lines that would.
(It's so fun figuring out how to make our filter bubbles more harmful isn't it?)
