The name isn't "Bitcoin News", though. "Stacker" describes the audience, but doesn't place any inherent limitation on what news we might be interested in. The site can have a highly selected audience without arbitrarily defining the scope of conversation.
I also don't think there should be a goal of emulating Reddit's breadth. Rather, I think the goal should be to make SN as rewarding as possible for those of us who love coming here. The quality of interaction is really high here and it would be a shame to reduce the scope of those interactions.
