That's a strangely limited notion of who has the capability to help - only people who are quantitatively more famous than us? For a project that's built around lots and lots of individual contributions (whether we're talking content, finances, or publicity), none of them especially huge in the overall scheme of things, it seems completely backwards to suggest that such things are useless if they don't dwarf what has already been achieved.
The argument was that it was his fame that was helpful and that it rose to the level that we should overlook the obvious problem. If you wish to take my comments out of that context I can't stop you but you are attacking a strawman.
