It does make cringe.
This is why you shouldn't assume I'm defending CSW.
My OP (and all responses) are about the naivete of thinking the attacks would stop or be less fatal if you replaced CSW with someone else.
The history of bitcoin refutes this.

What I'm saying is normal people don't care about a protocol. They are off-put by the cult following. That is a huge blind-spot in your thesis.
They are attacking CSW precisely because they can't attack BSV.
Edit: actually they do attack BSV directly, what was i thinking? Hahaha. Delisting. Suppression sales. Communists are like bees when their nest is disturbed.
Normal people also aren't the ones who derailed BTC/BCH or who delisted BSV.
This is a political battle for power that's much bigger than normal people and surface excuses.
Focusing on political fights based in legacy institutions like exchanges and delisting undermines the claim that BSV shifts the paradigm IMO. More important to focus on problems from within that you can actually make headway on. Onboarding > conversion.
We agree on that.
In order for BSV to win, it has to be undeniably useful and powerful enough to overcome what anyone things of any personalities involved.
Replacing CSW will make some issues subside, but it won't solve the fundamental problem.
I don't understand the reasoning for 'replacing' someone like CSW. No figurehead is better. ETH has one, BTC does not to my knowlege. Figureheads like that signal an underlying weakness and limited scope for any technology. It's just an attack vector.
We agree on that too.
This is precisely why my OP criticizes the naivete of those who think there is such a think as a figurehead who wouldn't be derailed with equal or greater effectiveness but just in a different way.
"Replacing CSW" would be like swapping a Ferrari engine for a lawnmower!!! Lol.
It would increase problems & solve precisely NONE!!! 😂😂😂
See what I mean?
