In other words, it is hard to dislodge the myth that Gemini is trying
to replace the web.
I find that one problem people (especially on "Hacker" "News") have in
understanding Gemini is that they don't have any experience of Gopher,
only of the WWW. A lot of things about Gemini make more sense when you
consider them as things addressing the pain points in Gopher, rather
than problems with the WWW.
