This seems like a bad rule of thumb. If your social circle is largely comprised of people who have chosen to remain within the community, ignoring information from “outsiders” seems like a bad strategy for understanding issues with the community.
Yeah, but that doesn’t sound like my strategy. I’ve many times talked to people who are leaving or left and interviewed them about why and what they didn’t like and their reasons for leaving.

Didn’t get that impression from your previous comment, but this seems like a good strategy!
