Unlike David, I think an expert is needed to moderate this discussion . . .

I think you misunderstand David. I don't want to put words in his mouth, but my impression was that he wasn't saying there shouldn't be a discussion led by experts, but that it's unreasonable to expect people you identify as experts to offer to write on this blog.

If you want to start a discussion, then start a discussion. If you think particular people need to be involved, then work to get them involved. But I don't get why you would complain openly here about the lack of a discussion that you're unwilling to start in a serious way, except to say that particular people who aren't here need to be writing here.

In short: it seems to me that you should either start writing about the kind of thing you think is lacking (that is, actually starting a discussion, not talking about the lack of a particular discussion), or go somewhere that you think suits that better. Staying here but going on and on about how the discussion here is missing something major that you're not really willing to add isn't helpful to anyone.
