I am not sure about the private messages but, you are certainly correct about profile pages. Profile pages add so much weight to people’s words. They shouldn't have mandatory content. Instead, the page should allow people to disclose the information they want to. The one problem I see, is famous people taking over the site the way other social media sites have been.

Couldn't they take over the site anyways? After all, their fame means they could get a ton of easy upvotes and their wealth means they could become whales easily.
Yes, I just think profiles would make it easier for the famous to take over. Many of them are getting paid a ton from social media sites already. So, they may have little motivation to use steemit, at least right now. How many famous people actual create their own social media content? I would hate to see this site become full of publicists and paid media manger posts. I still think profiles would help, the rest of us. So, I am torn on the idea.
