What you say is True.
The beauty of this platform for me is that one can cash out and go to a better one if Steemit becomes too inhospitable or the majority forces people to fit into too confined of an environment. Much like youtube is bleeding those who used to benefit from creating on that platform, but can no longer. When there is a need, there will be someone to build something better, I believe. The creativity that is poured into Steemit ultimately feeds the platform, otherwise the hype is gone and the value of steem/steem dollars drop to nothing.
