I agree Sundar. What I meant was that this particular narrative is now the only one committed to paper (as it were) and will be crawled and indexed and searched and read and referenced and since it is the only narrative that is discoverable, outside the Community that is, it will tend towards being the default one in my opinion.
Which is what I'm concerned about as well, Gautam.
