Reader being a "full-fledged alternative interface for Plus" is really the only sane decision at this point. One that would excite me. (I already use fb-rss for reader-Facebook integration.) I hope that's the decision that they made, but I'm not too optimistic at this point. I personally think it would have been smarter to integrate google plus with reader more (even if that involves forking reader) before changing the product and removing sharing. Now we are stuck with an unusable product for an indeterminate amount of time. Due to Google's notoriously poor communication, most won't wait and the community will move elsewhere. It seems like a waste to me and I seriously doubt they had the foresight to predict this level of backlash. I guess we will have to wait an see.
