The premium forum as a place for information that wouldn't ever be on the open forum anyway. So the division is not between posting information public or private, it's a division of posting public or not posting at all.
As long as that is the use case, the existence of the premium forum cannot harm the public forum.
I think that's the way most the users view it. It's not a "big table - little table" discussion. Although I certainly see why some would view it that way.
If the premium forum ever becomes a drag on the open forum, I, for one, will stop being in favor of it.
For now, that is not what it is.
