Nailed it, Paula. Excellent example of what you're talking about here.
I'm sure some people think me delegating SP for profit is a greedy act; (they've certainly told me so), what they don't realise is that I moved that money across from bitcoin specifically to lease out the SP.
Had I not done so (helping push up the steem price), none of them would have a problem with my conduct here, or any idea I had any bitcoin.
Ultimately I'm not too concerned as (unlike in meatspace) they have no way to 'redistribute' it by force.
I'm not a fan of leasing SP either, but I am pro entrepreneurship. at least you were honest in the way you have done it, many people open an second account to lease out from and pretend....
I wrote a piece in defence of leasing SP a few months back.
There are some positives passing unnoticed.
