If I recall correctly, the Resource Credits (RC) mechanism was developed to prevent spammers from flooding the blockchain, a problem that Steemit faced in its early days. As you indicated, new users can request delegations or persevere through their limitations. Building a following and getting noticed by curators takes time, but my advise to newbies is to focus on the process rather than the rewards, especially when you're just getting started. Instead, focus on honing your content and enjoying the creative process. The growth and recognition will occur naturally.

You're right. My point with the resources credit is that some users don't point it out as barrier to entry, but they point out not getting enough rewards as a barrier to entry. It takes years to build a venture that works. Apart from having curators notice one, one can build a following of friends they can grow together and these things can take years. Just have to keep paddling through. Unfortunately not many can wait
