Yeah, I agree with almost everything you said and think that it is actually still a pretty short list of the problems plaguing the game, the economy, the team and possible legal issues.
Many more points could be added.
Unfortunately most people who have an open mind to criticism and the possibility of trying to fix what is wrong have probably sold everything and left long ago, I think the majority of the mavs and handful of regular players remaining are of the sort who will just dogmatically shoot down any criticism as unsubstantiated FUD without any interest in actually making anything better.
And even with Matt as CEO if the team really really wanted to do a 180°, I'm afraid even then after the second wave of mass-layoffs due to REPEATED & CONTINUOUS (criminally?) negligent misappropriation of funds the team now is just too small to even make anything happen and probably has their hands full with just trying to hang on by a thread and not dying completely.
