Sarcasm and parody are not rational or logical arguments.
They are just cheap avoidance of the issues raised.
How does your website guide give people a better more comprehensive introduction to understanding Bitcoin than simply reading TBS would?
Nothing. My favorite chapters in The Bitcoin Standard are where he explains how seed phrases and private keys work, how to set up a bitcoin wallet, how to construct and broadcast a transaction, how and why to use multisig, how to mine bitcoin....

Sounds like you missed the central purpose and message of TBS.
Your favourite chapters are just rote user manuals, not the wider philosophical understanding of the real nature, context and value of Bitcoin.
Before you learn how to use a tool, understand what its purpose is.

Yes, before I use a hammer to nail something into the wall, I spend 30 minutes pondering the history of hammers, their purpose, and the deep philosophical meaning of hammers.

Lol not quite the appropriate analogy as Bitcoin is for most people a very different monetary paradigm/tool to what they are used to.
I would suggest the biggest challenge for most people is to understand what bitcoin really is and why to use it...there are a lot of 'Bitcoiners' who are ignorant of this basic stuff which means they are 'hammering that nail into the wall', in the dark.
