Ok.
But in regards to downvoting comments that’s not relevant.

It’s completely relevant. You are arguing that the purpose of down voting is to get rid of the noise/misinformation/generally unwanted content. I am saying there are better options.

How does any of that help against users who derail discussions with rage-bait or offensive but just this side of bannable comments?

That’s already a problem. We see that stuff all the time. The only way to stop that behavior is comment/post removals and bans. When have downvotes ever deterred troublemakers?
