Hard to tell if this is perfectly aligned with or against the ethos of doge. On the one hand it's all about being "fun", on the other hand it's the "Hurr Durr, I Was Only Pretending To Be Retarded" idea of fun.
Is centralization fun? Is being Visa fun? No, that's absolutely the opposite of fun. But are intentionally retarded design decisions fun? Well, yes, this is without question doges original and therefore canonical definition of fun, as it's literally a parody of thoughtful design.
If it wasn't for BSV already jumping the shark, burning it all to the ground in this manner would be uniquely doge fun, but alas, it has already been done.
