Thanks, but nowhere in all that information does it clearly explain, in layman terms, exactly how the referenced $5.00 (or any amount) in curator rewards would be allocated amount 10 (or any number) members.

In fact, I would be willing to bet that not more than a handful of non-management Steemit members know what all that jargon really means. Steemit is suppose to be a user friendly forum platform for everyone, not just a few MIT grads or the like. What you have instead, is a platform build and run by high-tech people, who found a way to take an unfair advantage over those less knowledgeable. That is exactly how Steemit is structured. In short, Steemit is structured to cheat the little guy, while making the Steemit whales rather wealthy. Thank goodness I am leaving asap.
