Are we really saying that we as a collective should stop building new stuff, stop innovating, and exploring ideas?
No. Learn to read, my children learned that at the age of 5. Or maybe you're tech-illiterate and don't know the difference between a program and a protocol.
Whoever holds this view isn't a builder just a user. And also risk averse and fear driven because of sEcUrITYYYYyy
No offense but it sounds like you're a user that joined Bitcoin in 2020 instead of being in the cyber/cypher underground for 20 years. Go ask a LND or CLN dev what they think about the two implementations of the same protocol was a bad idea - No, they will say it's f*cking awesome. Then ask if they should split and make 2 incompatible protocols out of it
Your extensive use of ad hominems and other fallacies serves to demonstrate the frailty and lack of merit of your argument. You just can't allow anyone to hold a different opinion from yours, can you? You immediately start dispatching insults left and right without addressing the points I've laid out.
I'm willing to be proven wrong but with your attitude and the way you convey yourself it is becoming increasingly hard to get you seriously.
The real waste is this post. Touché.
