Looking at it from AIDA perspective, both A's are satisfied greatly but I am not sure about either I or D.
Maybe too much Attention, I mean the supply implications of 100% tax vs 99% tax are much smaller than the psychological effect on players.
On the other hand anyone invested in the game can take as a wakeup-call and contribute with their own I/D efforts. It is easier to go mainstream bashing dumpers (pathetic and useless) than go constructive and help the game grow.
Thank you Jelly as always for a thoughtful and constructive comment!
