Luke, you're probably right about calling it "reasons NOT to publish" sends the wrong message. After all, I'm still publishing, just under a new model that's not about selling games or making money.
The real message is something like:
"Don't think that you have to publish according to the methods that have been developed by other indie game publishers. You can blaze new trails (or old trails) and publish however you like. The model that most independent publishers follow is great and works for many people, but it has weaknesses and difficult areas too. Learn from other people's experiences and maybe you can publish in a way that works better for you. Also, people that choose not to publish or just like playing games are super great and deserve respect."
