It's all my fault...just shoot me now. Please! Hahaha...jk my friend...what does beta mean again...exactly? Your points are well pointed and I'm hoping some others that come along might help ease some of your angst.
"It isn't always fair. The best and brightest are sometimes buried under the droll and darkest." Well observed...always it has been thus. I honestly don't think Steemit is going to change this. I do think it does bring some small amount of equilibrium to the table for some of the talent out there. At least I've seen evidence of much gratitude in my surfing of the feeds here.
Look at it this way...we are the generation of 2017. Things move fast and then slow down...oscillation is natural. Let's hope we can make help make each generational leap a forward one rather than the backward ones we've been experiencing in the walking world these past five generations.
Everyone needs a refuge from time to time. Let's keep the doors open on this one...and do our best to make it workable as well..shall we?
Thank you for stopping by @sircork...you are most welcome any time. <3

Can I buck the trend, and reverse the request and add something I think is positive about steemit?
"I honestly don't think Steemit is going to change this."
I think things like steemit, and block chains and cryptocurrency CAN change the way the world works!
But to stay on topic about it's negatives and stay in context...
I just don't think it can change the way life works.
Sure you can buck the trend, might cost you some big bucks though.
"I just don't think it can change the way life works." I'm almost certain there's people working on this as we type. ;-)
Touche'
