The difference is between acknowledging that trad publishers currently perform that function, and availing ourselves of it, versus thinking that the trad publishing system must be supported and continued so that they may continue to perform that function.
The former is a practical reality allowing us to enjoy the world we live in, the latter is a missed opportunity to improve the world.
