Well, actually, the reality is that Medium has more readers than commenters.
So, far on this platform, reading is still the thing people do the least, despite the fact that this is a blogging site.....
With that, I'm up for any changes that will shake up the user retention issue.

Yes, that is precisely what I mean. If visitors/readers are 100%, commenters are 10%, and posters are 1%. That's true for all of these types of sites: Medium, Reddit, Disqus, et c.

Regardless of the rewards, we are always going to have vastly more commenters than posters. It's a lot easier to reply to someone else (even with a "hey, you're WRONG!") than it is to type something new and interesting into an empty editor box.

I now understand why your username is sneak.

This is why ACTUALLY reading the content and commenting is just as valuable as creating posts if not more valuable.

I am a little weary on the removal of the 4 post limit. I think that will open the door for people to start playing the numbers game and put out as much posts as they can and see how many "hits" they get. I don't see this adding value to Steemit but decreasing it.

Agree with where you are going with that (though I'd prefer if none of these splits were actually predetermined). Likewise curation rewards. Think: posters, commenters, voters, readers.
