All valid points - almost talked about this.  People can always click into a topic/"steem" for Steemit, or "Getting Started", etc.  While that may not be obvious, in addition to this proposal, maybe stickied content, or a "Getting Started" topic should be added as well.

However, I do not think that because of this reason, the overall experience of steemers, new and old, should be compromised.

Yes, you are right, but from my discussions with others, it does not seem like very many people are really browsing the tags seriously enough yet. We should use them and we will (have to) use them as more content gets posted, but I am a little wary of relying on them at this point for people to find informational postings. We certainly do need stickied content; it would put me halfway out of a job (as a writer who has done far more 'how to' stuff than I ever wanted), but I'd support some stickies in a heartbeat.

I don't disagree - I think this is important as well.  I absolutely do NOT want new users being lost or confused.  The beginner experience is critical to the success and in everyone's best interest.  I do think these two should be done in concert.
