3/ In contrast, numbers alone can not bring a healthy network if not positioned in exact proportion with quality.

4/ Therefore the network effect, the community is searching for or building it is a consistent search of the exact proportion of numbers with quality.

5/ Initially, the network effect may be shaped by the numbers, that is how it gains momentum, but ultimately it has to be in exact proportion with quality to reach synthesis

6/ Here the attempt is not being made to paint them as culprits of engagement, no, not at all, but there should be a smooth transformation from numbers to quality, and vice versa and that is a time-dependent phenomenon.
