I didn't necessarily mean to lump you personally into one group or another, I think it was more the philosophy and the approach. After @smooth's comment as well, I think I may have done more damage than good with my "grouping" analogy. But at least it got some people talking!
I'm really not sure we're are so far apart in our goals for the platform, except that it sounds like you would like to wait longer before bringing new people to the platform (i.e. when it's more polished).
It really doesn't seem we're far apart at all. I'm with you 100% in everything you just mentioned. Looking back at what I wrote, I probably went a bit harder than I should have on that single quote ;)
