Did Satoshi himself not embody the four principles?

I think the challenge of creating Bitcoin speaks for itself, not to mention sacrificing the coin he mined so that it might live uncorrupted by personal gain.

Everything about Bitcoin is public, from the open sourced code to public ledger.

Yet paradoxically by being no one, he could be anyone, a true every-man or -woman.

And while many contributed, and he surely didn't do it alone, who would suggest that he did not take responsibility for its creation, he who did not balk at the scale of the challenge and the implications of his ideas. There were many who could have, in principle, who had the skills, indeed greater skill and talent than Satoshi. Could have, but would have?

Does it not confound the spirit to realise that the properties that that underpin Bitcoins architecture are at once the attributes of the person that would be needed to create it?

I look at Satoshi as a man might look at Mount Ararat or some other incredible mountain, in awe of his grace.
