tl;dr: we can attract thousands of new contributors with almost any combination of skills and availability, if we ask nicely.
Hmm, prove it. :-) You talk a good game and I'm not sure you're wrong, but I haven't seen much to suggest that you're right.
The design of an effective request / campaign for a certain type of contribution likely takes a significant amount of time and tweaking, and a body of people available to respond to the initial interest generated.
Forgive me, but I'm still a bit lost here. Are you saying you can or can't crowdsource your crowdsourcing? The initial comments were about red herrings and the illusion of finite resources. Now you're pointing at resource limitations that exist before we can even get more resources? Is that about right? (Yes, it's still turtles all the way down.)
