I think there is a difference between ongoing maintenance of a protocol and anti-ossification.
This seems like a straw man towards ossificationoors.
I’m not sure what bucket I fit into, but I understand the protocol needs ongoing maintenance. Also, I’m okay with taking our time with big “improvements”.
I wouldn’t call myself an ossifioor, but I understand that we don’t want to break the thing too.
If adoption is at less than 1%, and devs make up less than 1% of that crowd, we are missing a wide swath of brain power that can potentially come up with some novel way to help or hurt bitcoin with current code.
Imo, moving slow and not breaking things is Bitcoin’s greatest feature. Especially now.
