Absolutely! Will look forward to those thoughts. It's funny because I see two schools of thought: (1) don't chase passive steem because it does so to the detriment of platform potential that would boost your steem value long term, and (2) there are way better ways to get ROI (sometimes measured in intangible social value) than the current passive earners.
Actually I forgot the third school of thought that passive steem earners are important to attracting investors but this is not something I agree with.
I'm in the first camp but either way the common ground is to convince people that there are better ways the stakeholders of the platform can use their stake to make steem an attractive platform for everyone.
Number 1 is dead on, and a big reason why I'm not going to argue too much about the third school of thought. I've even begun to reduce my bid bot delegation to put my Steem where my mouth is.
