I'm pretty sure you answered your own question there. I don't know for sure but I tend to agree with your assessment. I wondered the same thing for a long time and I finally realized that this is one of those questions where the answer is so simple that you refuse to consider it because of how damn simple it really is.
Such assessment doesn't answer my personal question about why so many people are fixated with emulating, comparing and flat out copying Svbtle.
Dustin outlined some very cool design decisions when he first introduced Svbtle, but the presentation of final content wasn't incredibly unique which further confuses me. He shared some interesting workflow ideas which people are free to share, so why insist on publicly using Svbtle as some arbitrary benchmark?
