You overlooked the part where he mentioned he’s not running BIT110, as he’s uncertain about it.

True. He's not running BIP-110 yet. He explicitly says he's still evaluating the risks of both sides before deciding [video: 46:40-47:00].

That's exactly the point. Booth doesn't blindly follow. He rejected Core v30 because it was "dangerous" [45:08]. He runs Knots today. When PR #238 merges BIP-110 into Knots, he'll have the choice to enable it without changing software.

He hasn't "overlooked" BIP-110. He's doing the work you refuse to do: thinking.

While you outsource your node policy to Core maintainers who take orders from Citrea, Booth actually reads the code changes and understands the trade-offs before flipping switches.

The man wrote the book on exponential change. He knows timing matters. Core v30 was the line in the sand - he crossed it. BIP-110 is the next bridge, and he'll cross it when he's done his homework.

That's not uncertainty. That's intellectual sovereignty.

You should try it sometime.
