I'm with you in thinking these are interesting and important questions (hence no downvote from me). But what's the point of a "placeholder" post? It's not like the internet's going to get used up in the meantime. And the best discussion will probably ensue when the first thoughts your readers hear on the subject are written as well and as clearly as you possibly can.

Perhaps he'd rather have a less than optimal discussion right up front so that the thoughts he'll have to provoke a final version will be more optimal?
