An exclusive golf club for billionaires is also a platform. Of around 100 people. That most people would kill to penetrate.

True. The quality of a platform is also based on the quality of the people. And your example is more of the same: perceived opportunities for money or power.
The quality of the content, at least. Reddit grew by having the co-founders use sockpuppet accounts to cross-post things from other link aggregator sites.
