No, but are power users necessary? Most of the front page subreddits are just "post whatever you want here" and they have more than enough 14 year old posters to keep the site saturated.
Power users are more likely to use more server resources and less likely to see ads. They probably specifically do not want them.
That's a good point. I associate power users with niche subjects and generally higher quality posts, so I'm interested to have that demographic move here. I don't really care about front page content, so maybe it's win-win then :D
