The reason they don't I think, is because the consensus aligns with their point of view or the formula hasn't changed enough for them to warrant feedback (this can be negative or positive (I see it as mostly negative)). People like to say we don't represent the majority but the truth is more likely we do, at least some of them. [People who refute that premise are obviously being bad actors.]

Though, honestly we should really stop pandering to a silent majority...that accomplishes nothing..Because by the end of the day you can use that argument for anything to turn down any premise when you absolutely don't know what the major popular opinion is, it's data we can't collect. Even if we could, would it evaluate to anything meaningful(?) Mixed thoughts tend to become a blob of information if not generalized.
the descrepancy between a place like twitter, the many reddit boards, and here, are very very different.

i hardly see happy people on the forum, people come here to troll or complain.
