True, it is a decent amount of ammo -- but again, the key point is that if he wants HIVE from the airdrop, he needs to pump the hell out of the STEEM price by purchasing it on the exchange. In the end, if the Steem community adopts HIVE and dumps STEEM, Justin will have lost a shit load of money and many Steemians will have had the opportunity to dump STEEM and buy more HIVE.

The most important part (to me) is that he isn't getting a free ride in the form of a ninja-mined stake. If he wants any sort of influence on HIVE, he's gotta pay up. No matter what, he'll never have the same amount of power on Hive that he currently has on Steem.
