This is a very well written post and right on but I think you just cost yourself a consensus witness spot on Steem as these days, speaking out against the Steem "leadership" means you're good as gone. Although you didn't get airdrop to Hive, if things get bad for you on Steem and you decide to move on, Hive will be there. I don't really know what to say about the current state of Steem or why this 8888 thing was done in such a manner where the end result is users can no longer use Blocktrades. The 'frozen' accounts are also the wrong accounts to blame for the airdrop or whatever. This is a huge mess.
