You seem to be responding to a post that I found informative enough to forward to two different people. It described the architecture for a particular product in some detail, and seemed to be about the architecture, not a sales plug for the product. My impression is that a lot of the people who are involved in this are either implementing things that use it, writing about it, or consulting, which is why they know what they are talking about. If we eliminate the "self-serving vendors and authors", and perhaps also the "self-serving consultants", along with some "self-serving students" who are trying to get their degrees, we're left with people who aren't doing anything, and therefore have little to say. The people on this list are, by and large, very good, and they are doing real things. When it comes to IDL, I'm one of those people who isn't doing much with it and has little to say, so I'm glad to read the comments of those who know what they are talking about.
