Very well put. The platform used to support new comers to some degree in the past, but these days, it's almost impossible to grow organically. You either have to play dirty tricks to rank up or keep making efforts for way too long without any results, which eventually starts to feel like it's not worth it and maybe that's what makes people want to leave.

The witnesses and devs can surely work on this, but I guess like you said, that's not happening anytime soon.
