The study I brought up because it challenges some of the assumptions of the necessities for good community. It helps to be identified (as we are), it's good to stay small. In a sense, ETP retains that advantage by spontaneously connecting communities as necessary, just as today, Carpe Diem and On Deciding... Better, yet today we form a larger community via those connections. That is what I found interesting. Benefits of small communities, as the study outlines, yet together, we form a large one.
