You probably won't get an answer.

I organized a group of investors prepared to make an offer to buy and update FR but got zero response. I reached out several times, both privately and publicly, over the last couple of years to no avail. Crickets. Perhaps you can attain a different result, I wish you GL.

Investors want a return on their investment. FR would never produce a return, that’s not how it’s set up to operate. It runs on donations, gifts that are freely given without expectation of monetary return.

We support FR with our donations because for us, the “return“ is the non-monetary value of the site for our use.

With all due respect to your idea, trying to run this for investors would require that the site make money. It would destroy FR. Just consider the number of threads complaining about this feature or that feature that would “modernize” the site. The resounding response is that we like it just the way it is.
