Part of my point was that the 'accusation' you claimed against 1arity was that communities exclude outsiders. That you made rationalizations about why they might be excluding outsiders (because they are bad) serves to illustrate that the community might very well be practicing exclusion, and with good reason. I'm challenging the status quo here, and looking for an opportunity to allow quacks to be quacks while we're still 100% open to finding people with decent ideas. That may be implausible, but I'm still challenging it. :) For whatever reason, this reminds me of the recent TED talk that got pulled because the speaker was challenging dogma in research. Can't remember the title off the top of my head.
