Err, well, and vice versa, which is precisely the point.

Apart from the irritating typos ("resent"), this article seems to be obsessed with one tine of the hard fork not supporting the other side. That is, those who stay with PoW are apparently to make arrangements to avoid impairing PoS. Despite the PoS tine having dropped difficulty bombs and an Ice Age to fuck over PoW.

Split, hard fork, compete fairly.

And face it, if all the complexity and real-world means ETHPoS fails, at least Ethernauts will have a Plan B in ETHPoW. Or would have if there hadn't been so much effort made to burn the boats.

[The concept of “burning boats” is often traced back to an apocryphal story associated with the conquest of the Aztec Empire by Hernán Cortés. In 1519, Cortés led a large expedition to Mexico. The goal: capture a magnificent treasure said to be held there. Upon arrival, Cortés destroyed his ships.]
