Well put my friend.
I will say you spell out the differences between the two tribes very well. One other point to add is that SteemLeo is seeking to agressively burn LEO tokens.
I threw a few ideas out which were well received and each time the response was any profits would be burnt.
Unlike Steemit, on LEO, ideas can be expressed and might get implemented. I do not have much in the way of behind the scene info but I do know some stuff is brewing.
In the end, I believe more in LEO than I do PAL simply because the team behind LEO appears to be doing all it can to create a valuable product. It also will be one of the first tribes with a marketplace which is another huge step forward.
