The thinking makes sense, the more people that engage with a network the more valuable it becomes. If you think about it, that's how nature operates so it's like applying a fundamental law of life.

Still, in retrospect I think the downsides of maximalism have been shown to be potentially pretty bad. And the last thing we want to do is build a project with a massive network effect that then gets its governance hijacked, and it's impossible to beat it with a competitor because its network effect is so much greater.
Yes, that will be a terrible nightmare. After all the hardwork to achieve that network effect having to lose it over some vulnerability is a tough pill to swallow especially if you've given it your all. But that's the reality, this things do happen no matter how much you try to prevent it. Getting everyone on the same page for a long time is an impossible task.
