I agree with the sentiment, but differ on some of the details.

Project announcements seem useful if the projects build on the standards
discussed here, regardless of their commercial or non-commercial nature.

Asking for investments as part of the announcement does not usefully
advance the discussion of the standards.

And one additional point:

Disregarding well-meaning suggestions for collaboration and continuing to
promote a personal project is a waste of everyone’s time.
