Oh right, so I should append "... while the uber-rich point and laugh" .
I don't think the curation is what's holding back people from joining their ranks, as any avenue of growing wealth on this platform is available to everyone. Some may not be posting and voting but there are examples of post farming at that level too, or delegations to such things. Or just bid bots as a lazier way that earns slightly less. So they took one method out. No real change there, I'd argue.
(Edit: actually I should just scrap any tagline altogether, really.)
