Thank you for posting @liberosist.
These are the thoughts we at Steemit will invariably process on as Steemit takes on more and more people. Appreciate your articulating your thought process and compiling it in a composition.
Creme will always rise to the top.....sometimes it just takes a while. ^__^
Some posts which are quality will never be approved by Curie.... however one should not give up........even if not approved by one or more organisations especially if one thinks that they are indeed bringing value to Steemit.
Thank you for the opportunity to think on these things.
Indeed I do hope for Steemit that quality outweighs rubbish every single day.
Cheers.
