There is a related point which is being ignored.  A strategy will define a
single objective and a method of achieving that objective.  That means that
all other objectives and other methods are left out.  This will leave out
some members of the community.  That is inevitable.

This means we cannot take with us all of members of the community, and the
people left out will either complain loudly, or become negative about oS.
There will be a lot of noise, and potentially the day will be won by the
people who complain the longest, not by the largest group or the group with
the best strategy.

The alternative is to have no objective, or such a vague objective that all
can agree and nothing will be achieved.
