You write some good material but I can only agree to a point.
There is more that Steemit could likely do to bring quality writing to more notice. I think one thing is allowing the ability for older posts (beyond 30 days) to be voted on and earn. Then there is incentive for posts that didn't initially get notice to be found and upvoted.
You could also help yourself in that you may want to spend some time learning how to layout content for easier reading. You are not alone in this, some of the posts I read are almost painful to read because of layout.
For example, white space is our friend. Lines between paragraphs give the eyes a break and shorter paragraphs are easier to read on screen than longer ones.
