I believe he's acknowledged this problem many times on his blog in the past, and discussed possible ways to improve things.

The only way to improve things is to change the emphasis of the site. The guidelines were set over time to prefer improving the site as a resource over helping the individual. You can't optimize for both at the same time.

Yes, I am quoting what was itself a quote from an earlier blog post . But it was new to me and is being cited as a challenge facing the next CEO. So I'm still glad to see he's treating it with a lot of importance.
