most people probably bought second GPU in pre-ASIC era, that's why you had bull markets (network were rising)
the biggest attraction would be to have a steady and sure 2% increase per month of Bitcoin purchasing power :)
I noticed we're moving the goal posts
Would you still say that Satoshi did indeed say that they wanted an ASIC-proof GPU mineable algo?
Even though they used "But right now" in your quote (I don't know why you left that out, I can only speculate) and afaik, never mentioned an ASIC-resistant GPU mineable algo?
But to be honest, I don't think it matters what Satoshi said or didn't say. Bitcoin was meant to be out of their control and is, as it should be.
Referring to what Satoshi said are poor arguments imo.
