So my source on this is Tuxsudo, who did an interview with Watchman,
Apparently watchman censored the interview post-recording, saying that "cake wallet didn't fit his vision" or something along those lines.

I am speculating that the reason is so watchman can sell courses.  Now can I be wrong on the real motivation? yes.
If you have a time when watchman taught Monero, I'd love to hear it.

Now regarding doug, you are entitled to your opinion sure.  I think though he's doing a lot of good education-wise with getting good people on there 

 yeah I recall hearing about that.
pretty curious what Gabriel found objectionable.
i just mean he *always* mentions monero as a preferred payment method.

Doug is alright. he's just the Marty Bent of the Monero space.

its probably good to have someone like that as a public-facing persona.
not for me though.
