> From my perspective the real issue is why SI feels that EE's presence adds any value at all.<

This is so cynical I hope it isn't true. But here goes. EE generates a great deal of message traffic. Message traffic is SI's primary metric of value. Content or quality of content is irrelevant.

Like I said - I doubt this is true. I met the founders of SI - and they were decent folks. So I can't imagine them being so mercenary. But I can't entirely dismiss it either - and it is the most obvious "valuation model" I can think up.
