On the other hand, it's been argued that without the threat of a radical faction, moderate reformers are completely toothless. I'm not sure there's a generic answer to this dilemma that applies to all situations.

Once you're at the table. If you're trying to get people in the room, a radical faction drives them away. In this context, consider how many people didn't bother clicking through to respond to the patent office. And consider how many tuned out the discussion because we've seen it before. That's the power of radical over scoping.
