I've run companies larger than BST as CEO (not in finance) and honestly if I made those kinds of moves without telling the client base formally and correctly what they could expect from my changed business operations I'm quite sure the board would have canned me without the golden parachute attached.
He's a one man shop. He doesn't have a staff. He doesn't have a board. Its just him. With tons of people expecting 24x7 availability. You're comparing apples to oranges.
Why is this?? He has Millions of dollars of coin. Why doesn't he have a staff or assistants??
BFL has probably taken in less BTC then Pirate, they have staff.. The bitcoin magazine definately has taken in less, they have staff..
It depends on what his business is and how he wants to run it.
To answer the OP...
I think Pirate has made one mistake, he let his operation grow without setting some restrictions. This has led to BS&T taking too much of his time. I wouldn't mind re-investing again my profit (not my capital), if things turn out OK.
