Keeping the number of news topics down maximizes the number of people who read each topic. Well, maybe. It sure increases the amount of cruft that any one person has to wade through! And while it might be nice to have a few groups that lots and lots of people read (hey, that was the reasoning that lead to posting to net.general!), I'd suggest that having more specific newsgroups is to the greater advantage of the Usenet community.
