As a "neutral" observer (i.e. not a member of any chapter) I can
honestly say it's beginning to act as one.

I think David made an ironic reference to communism here :)

The thing is, central planning works well for small-size entities. But
is the WMF still a "small size entity"? They say they are, cos' their
budget is so tiny etc., etc., but I think you can't expand worldwide
and still call yourself small. It just doesn't make sense.
