It would discourage spiteful voting. ;-)
I don't think it'd do even that; our quorum with 1000 developers is 1.5 * sqrt(1000) or about 48. Having a turn out of under 48 people seems incredibly unlikely. Requiring a total turn out of N is roughly the same as requiring a turn out in favour of N/2, anyway.
