I don't think it's always about being "obsessed" with steem. To some extent, comparisons are natural. Hive IS a fork of Steem after all and Steem is still the closest in function to Hive out of all the blockchains. I think where the obsession comes in is in the price. Because Hive is so much better than Steem in so many ways, I think it's hard for some to grasp why the price of Steem is higher. No one is obsessing over whaleshares, etc. because the price isn't higher.
