Have you considered, @epiphyte78 , that perhaps you need to stop?
You continue to explain how your time and energ yis limited, that you have none to spare for a second click but you keep disproving this by arguing ad infinitum and super wordily for something that Staff has said will never happen.
You claim iNaturalist as designed cannot attract specialists yet you profess simultaneously to be one and here you are?
Respectfully, you are your own windmill, your own barking dog, your own long walk to and from work uphill both ways through deep snow.
I and numerous others have suggested you look around, take a beat, ask how things work and give it a fair shot but honestly you just seem intent on spending your clearly not so limited time arguing. That is a fine pastime but perhaps you might enjoy a philosophy forum more.
I submit that maybe, just maybe, as designed, this is not the site for you?
If so, I wish you well on your own site that you start that will, how did you word it?
