In the end this is just another update thread extension, but I'll have a go anyway.

Does Google want an index that contains mainly informative pages at the top? IMO no. If they did they would have to implement the "I'm searching for ()information ()products" selection. Does Google still want the most relevant content - informational or commercial? Yes absolutely.

You cannot over-optimise with good relevant information on the page. As such no true OOP exists. IMO you can over-optimise without backing up your titles, descritions, and H1s, with non-SEOed looking through a bot's eyes paragraph text.

The combination SPAM filter / information promoting feature looks very effective from my seat.
