Yes, I'm not really disagreeing with you more than I am offering a different view point. There are a number of ways to earn PAL that do not require voting or being voted on too, which is sort of where the difference between Steem and PAL starts being visible, and that gives minnows a chance that doesn't require deep pockets. To me, it's just as important that you all feel heard than it is "proving you wrong," if you will. Things are changing quickly, and the early weeks will fluctuate no matter what. I believe, and am committed to, more changes that make it better yet, based on what people are saying and feeling.
