It's interesting how the obscurity is a self-selection filter for quality contributors. Making quality contributions requires more effort. Having the front-page content as a "honeypot" of sorts weeds out those individuals who are primarily in the "drive-by" mode, anxious to blurt out emotional statements for immediate gratification. The interesting thing, too, is that there is a necessary friction to maintaining high editorial quality. There must be conflict to be able to enforce "creme de la creme" level of content for consumption. Which is fine, and not personal. All of us have our thoughtful/contemplative mood and the rash impatient one. At least on a relative scale.
