I was curious why there is no DT3, DT4
Actually, there is! You can change the Trust depth in Trust settings. But be aware this has large recursive implications and depth 4 will probably give a timeout on the Trust settings page.

I have many users here that I trust their judgement, but I don't think it's worth stressing myself about.
That's unfortunate, because the Trust system can only be decentralized if enough people use it:
Once you fully understand the system, it's important to start using it:
  • Did you do a trade in which you risked funds? Leave feedback!
  • Did you see users who left accurate Trust feedback on many accounts? Add them to your Trust list!
Anyone can leave feedback, and anyone can customize their Trust list!

Should a user be trusted because he is a quality poster?: I leave this to the community to decide.
A quality poster has more to lose than a spammer. By that logic, I trust a quality poster more.

If a group of scammers upto 50 persons are working together and one among the 50 gets a positive trust.
Prove it, and theymos can manually blacklist them from voting for DT1. See this example.
