Short answer: yes.

Go back and look.

You can't make statements about how to meet without implications about your view on the "Universal Church".

It might seem benign at the inception but it's got the same seeds at the root.

I believe another "Lee" would have sprung forth eventually, if it weren't for the one we got.

It was inevitably going to happen under any "vision of the church" that was espoused.

In actual fact, there IS and cannot be a "vision of the church" in a "universal" sense.

Or rather, if there IS, it's just a denominational foundational principle looking for someone to flesh out the idea with another organization.
