I think they should at least present an outline of how they'd improve the status quo, otherwise it's just like filing a bug report and walking away.

It's very easy to say "this is broken", and to present that in a glossy and slick manner, but the real challenge is contributing to the fix.

A documentary creator isn’t necessarily a leader. A bug filer isn’t necessarily a coder.

Why should we assume that someone with the capability to see the problems needs to also be the one to posit solutions? We have plenty of people in society whose job solving problems actually is.
