Oh okay. That's an interesting claim to make (actually, about 3 or so claims wrapped together), and it seems it could have some merit. I may think about it later...some other time.
(notice what I did there?) I'm not saying that to be rude or dramatic, I'm explaining my reaction, since it's relevant to our thread topic. I am shelving your thesis away to be considered another time.
So anyway, I suppose now we could go back to your question, "What are an S's general fears?" or we could have more general discussion. This thread doesn't feel like it has moved much though. We've wiggled around and gained a little perspective on both grounds, but can't find anything much farther than that.
