I'm only halfway through, myself, but I'd say that description is essentially correct, with a caveat: The one group that the book (so far) almost dismisses out of hand, is the creator hoping to make a living...

...and that's all they have to say about that.
The rest of it just seems to be about romanticizing and lionizing the Pirate, linking it to Youth Rebellion, and supporting the idea that Convention is there to be attacked, never accepted, and not because you must, but just because you can.
