That's a great counterpoint, too. Both essays seem right. I think the solution is a hybrid... something in the middle as usual. I think an exploration into hybrid models that build on both traits is the best route. I'm eyeballing Rust as an example as it has a team doing Cathedral model with guidance and ecosystem from Bazaars. I see good and bad in it that come from aspects of both. Very interesting.
