Downvotes are considered a legitimate expression of disagreement on HN. This is pg-level policy.

And the result is that important information is now silenced. The comment is now greyed out. Disagreement should not lead to silencing.

That's dramatizing it a bit much. The text is still there. If you're interested in reading it, you can. I regularly highlight grayed out text to see what it says, but I also read YouTube comments for fun. If you feel the grayed-out text is too blatant, then ask for a feature where you can use Javascript to toggle downvoted comments for visibility.
