There are still many great people who stutter who have overcome adversity from stuttering AND openly stutter, and i think that's OP's point. And to continue that point, unfortunately we don't see that as much. I know you didnt mean this at all, but to play straw man, the way you worded it made it seem like: we only hear from people who have been "cured" because they are great and good enough to overcome adversity. Everyone else is flawed and if you haven't overcome stuttering, you're just not as great and can't handle adversity.
