What if the post isn't particularly appropriate for one community, but very good for another? No point having it float to the top of the one it's not the best fit for.

Like, maybe it's still relevant on that community but shouldn't be artificially inflated with votes from an entirely different group of people with different interests.

Nice idea, I just don't think it would be good in practice.
