1. No social consensus in Bitcoin. That's not a thing. There is only protocol consensus which this BIP follows. 2. Calling people names is a non-issue to Bitcoin. Also, I find it hard to believe this is the only group inside of the Bitcoin ecosystem that has called someone a name. 3. Legal threats are only carried out by the state and as Ocean is not a state actor, I don't see what you're talking about here. Conclusion, it's not an attack.
