Exactly. These "Satoshi would have..." arguments just sound religious to me. Not rational. Not market based. And not technically sound.
In a religion where your deity is the source of truth it does matter what they "would do or say". For a software project it doesn't really. Bitcoin is not owned by anyone. No one has authority unless the node operators decide they do. He made no mention of the power of node operators to decide which version of bitcoin they will run.
He just comes off as ignorant to me. Not dumb or scammy.

I know he was really into bitcoin prior to the Blocksize Wars. I feel like this is reflecting a psychological inability to process that loss. He may have been scammed with this version of events, but he's not trying to scam anyone.
