What marketing sceme by the author of Ktulu do you have problems with? Care to point, I would be very interested. I haven't seen any comments yet (maybe I missed) by the author claiming it to be the best in the world, or anything to that effect. Only the beta-testers and the ones who actually bought the software, have shown some impressive results; and perhaps overblown it's actual strength. Beta-testers don't speak for the authors. What did he (the author) actually said, that made it seems like a "precociously marketed thing by a precociously greedy young man"?
