It is not naive at all. What is naive is to remain static in one's implementations and not constantly look for 1) better implementations 2) other traffic sources. In fact, I wrote an article on traffic diversification weeks before this current shakeout. See:

If you're afraid of what newcomers will do instead of learning from them or patiently waiting while they solve YOUR problem set (which is currently happening in one MAJOR MAJOR site--starts with a G), then your own constrained outlook is the source of your lack of growth. I look at competition as ultimately a COOPERATIVE venture--we all face the
same problem set. Almost all of us get stuck at certain points. By having newer sets of eyes and groups of brains picking at the problem, the chances of it being solved exponentially increases than when just ONE guy is trying to figure it out.
Keep an open mind, bro. I'm not saying you're FLAT wrong. Just saying the problem and solution set is bigger than you care to see ;)
