Agree with you that Matt hits the nail there. I also think that will be more and more apparent as many don´t reflect upon the control they let go to e.g. Facebook today. Third-party services are taken for granted by many and very few reflect upon what the TOCs really say... A tool completely under your control has indeed a very high value.

I hope he had the time, afterwards, to have a few pints with them.

Maybe that’s a stretch but that’s what I’ve heard quite a few times.

So it's questionable to wonder how big WP would become if it were a project starting out now instead of an existing project with it's userbase and a bright horizon of rewrites and optimizations in future versions. I'd say the second isn't the ideal option, but hey - everything starts somewhere.
