All that is correct and acknowledged. And for core interaction and coding of the blockchain, you are 100% on.
However, what about all the other tribes/communities? They are not hindered by what you allude to. They do not have to deal with witness or blockchain coding to evolve their projects.
That is why I feel all this needs to take place outside of the base layer of Hive. As long as the blockchain keeps evolving to hand all that it is tasked with, such as all the transactions including posts, comments, and whatnot, then all is well. Peakd keeps improving and updating, so it is not as if there isn't a front end that keeps making progress, there is.
However, peakd is still a general use application. There are dozens of tribes that are more targeted yet they seem to be doing little. Certainly, they have the same freedom as Khal to innovation and do as they see fit with their applications.
Yet, for some reason, none of them are making progress. The games seem to be doing a better job of it although they, at this point, do not appear to be bringing in a ton of users (perhaps I am wrong on that, I dont have numbers either way).

tribes are maybe lacking ambition, finance, building web pages knowledge... i don't know. maybe some things will change with something Khal mentioned few times. that there will be an option for others to use what is build on Leo.
I did my caveman stats analysis for splinterlands few weeks ago. my database knowledge is not that great but if i did it right, very very small amount of accounts registered through splinterlands end up ever doing anything on social part of the chain. it is now out of my head numbers but something like from 1000 accounts 5-6 end up using anything else than json transactions.
I need to check that out.
Logic tells me your analysis is correct. I would imagine most gamers are not into blogging or social activity of that sort, not with what is offered on Hive anyway.
So I have a feeling what you uncovered is not far off. That said, all those who are gaming on Spliterlands are being a part of the community and adding to the blockchain ecosystem. In fact, it is likely that Hive becomes more of a gaming mecca than it does blogging.
The gaming world is much bigger anyway.

I agree with you on that. Anyone can create a tribe by paying a small fee and many have set up their tribe to let people post their blogs in those tribe. That's all. They have no plan, no intention to invest or develop further.

maybe they can't, maybe they don't know how, maybe they don't have the money for it, maybe they don't have finance for it, i did nothing, so i am not judging.
I'm not judging either, I just said we can't expect them to do more as it hasn't been their intention.
