Martin, et al.,

Thanks for your thoughts on this.  It's actually something I  
struggled a lot with when we were initially getting started, so I  
think all of us at ONE/Northwest and the broader team of LearnPloners  
would value from the discussion and input.

I laid out my thoughts on the subject at the following (it's 6 months  
old at this point, but still reflects the concerns):

For additional context, it's probably valuable to also read the  
general goals of the site:
