"Little or no impact to retailers"?

Is he referring to major bookstore chain like Borders -- who I rarely see small print press game products on their shelves where I live -- or mom-&-pop FLGS who has those unsuccessful "badly designed, poorly marketed, and barely supported RPG products" still sitting on their shelves collecting 6 year's worth of dust? I have already seen one FLGS (the only one that is closest to me) shut down.

I respect Ryan Dancey, but in seeing the big picture, he overlooks the small portions.
