Is WisdomTree Moving From ETF Evolution to ETF Pollution?

It is interesting to note how many boosters of free-market capitalism have turned faint at the prospect of ETFs closing for lack of interest. Exactly what is wrong with throwing investment concepts out at the public and letting the weak ones die? Isn't this the "magic of the market" at work?

I think some advisors prefer passive index ETFs so they can take all the credit for alpha. If you have to say part of that tasty wholesome goodness belongs to Powershares, Wisdomtree, Claymore or First Trust, there's less to pat yourself on the back for.
