Love your idea, @thecryptofiend. There should be as little user segmentation in terms of classes and groups in Steemit as possible. And right now, that's how it seems to be looking. New users joining may well have feelings of alienation as well as confusion of the Steemit system and how it all works, which need to be addressed.
The questionnaire you suggest should serve as a medium to bring these groups together somewhat and offer some kind of transparency between them. Opening up more topical debate and discussion about Steemit that will try to involve everyone instead of a select few and offer some clarity concerning the issues you outlined.
Thank you for your very considerate answer. Yes that is my hope but I think people may find this topic a bit too dry or boring:)
