Yeah I've been against promoting smaller instances from the very beginning for this very reason.
If it's small and has been established for years? Go for it. If it's small and just popped up recently? It's a pretty big risk.
I like the idea of a federated network of lots of smallish instances. You're absolutely right, though, that some flux is to be expected, and evident.
