It's interesting to consider and I think you did a great job with the post, there wasn't any evident bias to any one side and it is open to the possibilities and changes while being very informative.

Community is everything at the end of the day and many of us here hate to see the platform degrading into a similar centralized system that we're all too familiar with. If @dan has created all these platforms and worked hard to get them where they are, of course, he is going to has a higher purpose that wants to create the ultimate decentralized platform with a focus on genuine community interaction and growth. Not people devolving into robotic scripted behaviors based on greed and capitalizing.
I love STEEM and I will continue to grow here and find like-minded people to surround myself with, but it's not the be all and end all. Don't count on one egg in one basket, count on multiple eggs in multiple baskets.
