You're under a mistaken impression, if you believe that the highest priority here is on growth and adoption. They are desired, of course, but this and dare I say all legitimate crypto platforms are driven by ideology, not by the goal of being the biggest. The ideology of Hive is decentralization to create a trustless platform and freedom from true censorship. This is posted about quite frequently, so its hard to understand how you could miss it. On the censorship issue, I suggest you listen to some videos by @theycallmedan, if that's your preferred medium (I actually don't like to listen to video/audio, as I can read/learn quicker from the written word).
