Why are you comparing against a negative example, rather than an example to emulate?
I already described what sorts of features of EY's make him a "guru."
Because you criticise him for being a "guru" and not for not being "XY" (word that describe a positive thing).
That makes it important to understand what you mean with guru and whether you consider someone like Dawkins to be a guru and who you consider to be guru's that aren't "deliberately weak foil".
