On this very List people are constantly bragging about how wonderful Wikipedia is; focusing exclusively on how big it is. Yet completely ignoring how screwed up the culture is. It's like a company's media people pushing how good their product is, and how big their company is, and completely avoiding how poorly their workers are treated - while those in the executive suite are focused on trying to persuade people to invest money in them. Arrogance without wisdom is hubris. This is a formula for disaster.
