Two things struck me in particular...
...the first:
"...as their entrenchment in response to upticks in departures and increasingly dangerous questions from members will ultimately approach a point of hyper-legalism whereby the entire Jehovah's Witness infrastructure chokes on its excess of rules and regulations."
A spot-on description of what's taking place right now.
While the WTS has been bending over backwards to give the outward appearance of mainstreaming, they have very recently and strongly reinforced their internal positions on the GB's authority, transfusions, the two-witness rule, 1914, creationism, etc.
The Org is clenching its collective fists even more tightly around the things that define JWs, just as Gregario predicts.
It reminds me of something Julian Assange of Wikileaks believes; that the more leaks of confidential information an authoritarian regime experiences, the more it tries to control/restrict the flow of confidential information in an effort to prevent the leaks, until eventually, the regime effectively cripples - or chokes - its own ability to properly function.

...and the second:
"This kind of perceptual shift, however, challenges over a century of increasingly insular and absolutist Watchtower Society doctrine, so I don't believe reforms will ever happen in earnest."
Far more telling is that he, like more and more of us, is convinced that progressive reform - i.e. authentic mainstreaming - is no longer possible.
And if authentic mainstreaming isn't possible, how can the WTS survive in the Information Age?
