Perhaps, @craig-grant, but I think it also gives new people who haven't put a lot of sweat equity in steemit a false sense of hope and the potential for huge disappointment once those guilds stop voting for them.  IMHO, there's a point where too much hand-holding is detrimental to their personal growth and stamina.  Just like children, you have to let them explore and get the scrapes and bruises.  Just be there to kiss the boo-boos.

curation guilds help users who want to grow their steem power by earning rewards using voting power they did not purchase, but is loaned to them by the very few who have 90% of the steem power, it's not only about bloggers earning rewards. Users with the perception that they have more fair ability to distribute and recieve rewards rather than having to wait on a hand out from a "whale bot" improves the user experience and eliminates the complaints about centralization of power. There will always be too many content creators, because creating content is not hard

Respectfully, @craig-grant, I'm still only partially convinced because individuals are still loaning their vote power to a larger entity which is still made up of fewer individuals with discerning tastes and therefore potentially limited interests.
  
I am partial to individuals doing their part.  **Pay It Forward.**  Have a true gift economy where if you see something that is really outstanding, gift them with a little STEEM or SBD with a comment and let them know that you, as an individual really enjoyed the piece.  I believe that is more meaningful to everyone involved.   And as content creators, we can say it's easy - but for a lot of people coming into Steemit, it's their first time blogging and there are lots of challenges.

I definitely would not gift any steem or sbd, and would not expect or wnat any gift from anyone unless the gift was being distributed to hundreds of others and myself at the same time
