@CoolerPseudonym (i do the same, use kill the newsletter to get 'em into my feed reeder!)
@CoolerPseudonym (i definitely think all blogs / newsletters / whatev should be rss-first. but i wonder whether there are people would want pings for eg infrequent sources they value so they don't miss them in their rss. for me at least, the rss reader is a bulk environment, though i use folders to make it more likely i see some higher priority sources. frequent publishers can dilute feeds even there, though.)
