So as it is, I earn a badge, I give it to your content, your content has been badged (which is different than having a badge to give) and everyone can see that badged content.

Under your system, I earn a badge, I give it to your content, you give it to something else, and the content I badged is no longer badged.

In order to use the badge the way you want to, you're effectively negating my opinion on your content. You're saying "this is no longer noteworthy because this other thing is more noteworthy."
