Hm, nice point of view, never thought about it on this way, it could be a possibility! But Steemit has a lot of good and engaged developers and witnesses who can make changes to the platform when something is getting out of hand... So I got the trust this will not become a problem... Hoping to read a reply from someone with more insights about your question!
It would be nice to hear some whale opinions. I do hope you're right.
Thank you for your time ;)
