Ya, well said!
What I hope we as a community can help LEGO avoid is (to coin a phrase)
"fansploitation" -- i.e., taking advantage of or exploiting things that fans
did which they wish they'd thought of or done first, since they're getting
into this game several years late.
The Kidvention itinerary was probably an honest mistake, but IMHO we should
always keep our eyes and ears peeled for subtle fansploitation, whether it be
accidental or intentional. Nevertheless, any way you slice it, I think the
Kidvention is a "win win" for both sides. :-)
