Just to add, 100'000 users could really like a cat meme, which brought a smile to their day. That is of course valuable. But is it more valuable than than if somebody found the cure to a very rare disease..? Imagine there were only 10 users on steemit who had that disease and they all benefitted from 10'000 more smiles in their lifetime...

I don't think it's fair to say that something that is helpful to more people is more valuable than something that helps just 10 people.
