The Core vs. Knots fight is not existential; it’s a ritual immune response. The very messiness proves Bitcoin isn’t captured.
The true capture risk is ossification of defaults: if people believe Core’s or Knots’ policies = Bitcoin itself, sovereignty dies.
As long as there is chaos (Core technocrats, Knots prophets, memetic rebels, anarchist pragmatists, liberationist forks), Bitcoin is alive.
