No, what's really happened is that you guys have lost all faith in the Nix because of the negative stories in the Doom Post and the NBR, and you assume that everyone else in the world has as well. That's what child psychologists call "absence of theory of mind".
What do the the grown-up psychologists call it?
(Also my theory the "Junior82 pontificates about things he knows nothing about" theory: It's mostly all the angst on this thread that drives the doom mongering - leaving aside the hacks looking to sell papers. Fine line between realistic and being a pessimistic whiner - which is quite a safe position to take cos if it goes t!ts up then you can adopt the concerned but smug "I told you so" position)
