Thank you for this. Part of the problem with the cynical view of charities that you're responding to is that if it goes unchallenged, it actually becomes practically impossible to help charities improve their charitable efficiency. If people think all charities are BS, they stop donating, and it becomes meaningless to say charity X is doing a better job on a structural level than charity Y, which is for sure important information for donors. I've worked on some stuff for a social organisation that is now a registered charity, and it is amazing how deep the tendrils of the regulations actually go -- the extent to which things have to be structured to avoid conveying benefits that aren't the objectives of the charity. (I also applaud you for doing what you do)
