I'd rather see the poorly-edited version. It gives me confidence that Zuck simply said what he meant, rather than run ten different versions through focus groups to see which one would get the best reaction.

I don't mean he should rely on a focus group or let someone else write for him, I mean finding one or two people that will help him make sure he's saying what he wants to say. There's a lot of room to improve clarity and readability without becoming 'sanitized.'

Sure. I'm not saying that sloppy writing is a necessary condition for candor. But it's a near-sufficient one.
