For me it's that bitcoin allows bloodless conflict. We can seperate , prefer different things, argue one way or another. For instance, i absolutely despise Pierre Rochard and other bad faith trolls, but we can just say our piece and go our seperate ways. Tick tock next block. The ecosystem evolves, personalities rise and fall, bitcoin changes, the narrative changes, but the 21 does not.

Agree, except the hate for Richard feels misplaced. He’s always been a nice guy and has really good arguments for his positions. I might call him a troll sometimes because he pokes fun, but I certainly wouldn’t describe him as “bad faith.” 🤔
He does not have good reasons for his positions though.
In the second part of a recent podcast in conversation with Paul Sztorc he admitted he hasn't even read the drivechain bip but offers opinion and commentary against it as though he knows the topic.
He is worst than a bad faith actor.
He has listened to hours of discussion about drivechain, is paid by his company to do research, but can't or won't read the bip.
