I've been the subject of a lot of criticism from Professor Moglen, second only to Theo. I'm personally not bothered by it. His criticism has challenged me to better articulate my positions. I grew weary hearing other professors talk about how bright we are and how successful we will be. So I appreciate the reality check that we sometimes get. That said, I think it's better to see what we can do with an idea rather than to immediately discount it.

That is, I have faith that there is a reason for the bait and switch (unlike user comments about how people merely "vomit" onto the wiki). I am just not sure what it is. The question is not rhetorical.
