If steemit were a "blogging" only platform, then no individual would be making any money other than by self voting. If it were a "social" platform only then it would be as toxic as facebook only with money, and half the votes would be down votes so no one would earn a dime. When you add in "audience" platform, then you have "steemit", and when the blogger, the socialite, and the audience member are treated with respect, then you have a successful "steemit".

I agree with you on all @bashadow. We can't just be one because there are already existing platforms out there with just 'one' feature. Great points!
Bloggers, and Crypto-people, often forget, if no one is there to read their post, it just sits, me I am more of an audience member, I like drama-sometimes, I like novels-sometime, I like to learn things-sometimes, and I like eye-candy - sometimes. No one only goes to the movies to watch Dancing in the Rain with Fred Astaire, some people like Purple Rain with Prince.
