I don't know why you said it was long, but I enjoyed reading your post. It is similar to my thread a while ago about "one reason why FPSs are successful", but yours is well articulated.
The terms hardcore/casual are pretty useless now, and I don't enjoy using them. I enjoy playing games alongside my friends. The so called "hardcore" (isolationist) begs to differ.
