You don't mince your words and sometimes get dismissed (regrettably so) because of it, but when your logic is sound, it's sound.
I can't disagree with you, I would be dishonest myself... Now, how we actually have this dialogue with steemit inc and get "heard" is part of the equation I've not yet figured out.
At times I feel that if witnesses that have been here for far longer than I've even been a member struggle to set foot inside that circle, I stand no chance. But, here I am willing to keep on trying.
But again, you are spot on.
I can relate very much to feeling not heard, but unexpectedly found that I was not shouting into a void long after I had given up hope of response.
Being heard doesn't necessarily equate to be responded to directly, in fact.
I believe Stinc has ears on the ground, and listens quite closely to the community. Responding directly, not so much, as that would be far too time consuming, and productive of fractious debate of no benefit whatsoever.
Take heart!
