This point is neither pro nor anti Threads per se though it is a rejection of one of the rationales sometimes offered for federation. Growth oriented goals are, in my opinion, based on assumptions rooted in competitive capitalism. Masto/Fedi are not profit seeking capitalist enterprises and thus imposing those imperatives on them is a conceptual error to be avoided. I would prefer to see slow, organic growth until a natural homeostasis is reached; that is, the kind of growth we already see.
