This comment makes so much sense to me.

I want to see Steem continue to evolve and grow. Other blockchains made from scratch will be made, and should inspire healthy competition for new ideas. Competition can help all blockchains improve.

Unless Steem had become so fundamentally corrupted, that a person can convincingly prove Steem can never be redeemed to the state of an honest system, then I see no reason to start over with a clean slate. It still holds so much value to so many people who look beyond the fiscal frivolity.
