I don’t really understand why you think you can do things that others can’t. Especially when those others have many years experience, both building boards and running companies.
I’m sure someone with this much experience in engineering wouldn’t be making such bold and unfounded claims
I think there is plenty of positivity in the community but most people that are experienced here have taken the time to read, study what others are doing, learn and then begin to develop their own designs.
You won’t gain much respect going into someone else’s house, telling them you can do things better, making claims about things that you don’t have much understanding, and generality being loud.
Looking at this screencap the website really doesn’t give a strong sense of what you are speaking to either, Thurbolt. I really don’t like picking on people’s English because it IS difficult, but you really should have someone who is proficient at least edit the site so it looks professional.

When we first started, we also tought we knew how everything worked.
After coming on here and joining quite some events it turned out that there was much more to it than it seemed.
I know some people on here might come over a bit harsh but you got to realise they saw alot of “companies” passing by and some of them with only the mindset of making a quick buck.
