It seems to me, that the Father is pleased to also reveal things to those who are nothing. And if that is the case, then the Lords Recovery and the blended brothers also need the rest of the Christians.
Matthew 11:25 --At that time Jesus said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children"

A related question - if Watchman Nee availed himself of some 3,000 "Christian classics" per the Lee biography, then were there some 30 (+/-) sequential "spiritual giants", each with the "vision of the age" penning some 100 works (+/-), each building on the previous one? No, according to Lee: rather WN picked the good bits from each one* and fashioned his unique message.
Then why don't we each also pick the good bits from Nee, and others, and likewise fashion our own?
Oh, no! Can't do that! You see, the age turned, and now it is one-stop shopping. In fact, if one should try to cobble together a revelation from disparate sources whole meeting in the LC, one would be deemed a rebel, ambitious, divisive, and so forth.
Only Nee could do this. The rest can't. Why? Only he possessed such capacity, apparently. If anyone else tried it would be presumptuous and bring ruin. You see, Nee's conclusions were truth and divine light, whilst yours & mine are mere opinions and lead to stumbling in the flock. Don't think, because someone else did your thinking for you. "Get out of your mind, brother! Only Watchman Nee could go there, and survive the experience."
