Great article. But I think every contribution is original as every human is original. Of course that's a philosophical point of view. Considering social media Steemit aspect we need more "leaders" in creativity. As you can see the hot page is becoming a page of repetative content with more or less all the same people "reesteming" their previous succesful articles.
Why should we even be able to re-steem our own article? Patting ones self on the back never accomplished anything.
