Maybe if the Council were not existing, things would even be worse, maybe not: who knows?
Well, not to be too rude, the "who knows?" question is easy to answer: "those who know more than you".

Please read my post above, including the bit about expectation management. None of the things you list are community issues, they are consumer issues - and that's the difference. Yes, we've represented consumer issues as well (MyNokia recently, USB ports in the past, official MeeGo support); but the expectation of success there is very different to us organising who gets their trip to the November conference sponsored, for example.
