If we cater to scholars, we are only expanding the "digital divide," so to speak. Our goal is to provide a large viable library to all, not just to the scholars, who represent less than 1% of the people, and are often very elitist.
I don't think anyone is advocating providing the PG library "just to the scholars", so that's a strawman. Instead, some people simply want to make PG texts more useful to scholars than they currently are, and I think we can do that without making them less useful or less available to non-scholars. -Michael
