I have experienced the same elitist attitude with OSM especially with notes i opened lately in my non primary areas. Questions or even remarks have been responded to in a way that as a newbie that would have been my very last note. So i think OSM goes the same path as wikipedia but i think the revert first simply doesnt work for OSM as we dont have a single click button to revert changes. So before somebody asks on a list to let somebodys changes be reverted the revert gets discussed. So i think the ability to discuss changes in OSM is its technical inability to ease the revert.
