I also wonder if the Reddit admins might have started some kind of marketing campaign to build the consensus in their favor of their own platform. There have been several instances of third parties using social media to do that kind of things, the hivemind makes it easy enough that the word of mouth is going to spread when it's high enough on the main subs.
That might be granting them more PR credit than they've shown in the last few weeks, though.
