Thanks for the answer.
The problem (in my eyes) was title of your post, I interpret it like something is seriously wrong with the EOS. And of course I had to read it, I want to see all sides and opinions. Then I couldn't find anything to support the title. (can't for example see it worse than some others, say Cardano...)
I see what you mean. Yeah, it probably is over-hyped like many others, nothing new here. :-)
Although as new application start emerging, this may become quite interesting, like Dan's new Steemit kinnda thingie later this year...
