I think it was to have collapsed by now.

I agree the eip has flaws.
The vote tax killed any incentives to stay unless you have sizable stake.
No need to comment, nobody can reward them.
I've just recently cleared the dust round down on 100% vote.
I haven't voted many comments since the fork.

That the top isn't complaining is telling, imo.

You got a graph of the square root curve?
Maybe we can get another fork that helps the newbs rather than run them off.
