given how little one vote matter, it seems to me that stripping felons of their right to vote is both petty and counterproductive if the point was to reform them into civic minded individuals ?

Also, seems kind of scary that this implies a future where so many people are in prison that their vote could actually tip the balance ?

Given how little one vote matters, we have a much more serious problem here: why should any individual vote?

For any one person, the chance that even one election in their lifetime will have its outcome altered by their vote is vanishingly small.

Therefore, in terms of practical effect, each individual always faces this awareness: that whether and how they vote is purely symbolic in its effect
