People say the same thing about Linus, but the core people have guided Bitcoin to this point just as Linus has remained the benevolent dictator of Linux. “Social consensus” is basically you saying...
This is not solvable.
Even if every core developer would be tested every day by a lie detector, would swear on their mother that they have honest intentions, abuse is around the corner.
People can be corrupted, black mailed, and what more.
We can't let this, probably, last shot at some human freedom be destroyed.
Thus we need to find a way to ASAP freeze the release.
New development can be done on other layer like LN did.
