I agree in general that complaining about “moe pandering” is silly. It's not so much a criticism as a means in which I sympathize with those people who got into anime because of 80s mecha shows or the various gory/sexploitation stuff. And then as time moves on, cultural trends and what sells changed. Consequently people are left in the dust if they couldn’t “grow up” with it.
Oh, the sweet triumph. There never was a better time to be a moefag.
Still, it's not like studios aren't publishing Darker than Black or whatever other shows I never watch. As for sexploitation, just look what they did to Strike Witches and Juuden-chan. On a historic scale, we get tons and tons of every kind of stuff.
