In Response To: "Yes, I agree, it is time to abolish the Giants List" (Jake Jacobs)

You have stated that you are a strong believer in the wisdom of the crowd and that is why the Giants list works. Do you also believe enough in the crowd's wisdom when it comes to assessing the pros and cons of the Giants list itself to consider changing the Giants process?

The Giants list was created before the advent of bots and before the internet with all its knowledge sharing. It was a different time when noone really knew what was going on. Today the situation is different: now we know the pr of all relevant players and the internet facilitates knowledge sharing about who plays how. Do you think the Giants list is less relevant today than it was before bots and internet came about?
