I'm not going to get into the topic of individual proposals, but I will agree with your conclusion that things are still very emotional and that we still have many things running along the same lines of what was the case during Steem.
After all, many of the names are the same names, which is reasonable to expect as it was/is a fork of Steem.
Change takes time, it doesn't happen over night, nor does it occur if we surround ourselves with people who do not desire change.
Likewise, it is amazing how the community did pitch in and what all the community did and without the community there would be no Hive.
EVERYTHING that was done would be worthless if the community had not moved to Hive.
As far as the business side of things, yes, the norms of "Making an offer" and that offer being accepted as such and likewise all terms and conditions to be known prior to any contract being signed are not necessarily being applied to Hive as far as the funds available go.
I see a clear need to introduce crystal clear defined terms and conditions as far as funding goes.
Never enough openness and transparency.
As for the rest of the specifics your touched on, won't go near them, otherwise could be a victim of a downvoting/flagging spree and none of us small fish want that for ourselves. Won't deny it. It is the truth and will say it as it is.
Cheers.
Thx for the input.
