It seems to me that the root problem is not that there are too few posts on main but rather that we aren't collectively making much new progress on the core mission of LW.

I think there a lot of progress made by CFAR on that mission. It just not made by writing lots of articles.

So you think LW should get credit for progress not made on LW and not posted on LW?

I don't think "we" refers to Lesswrong. We are a group of people. I think it's good when everyone acts in a way that produces the most utility without thinking much about where the credit goes.
