It's kidnof getting creepy to me how much people seem to be treating bitcoin like a religion, especially bcash proponents.

Satoshi Nakamoto is not a god.

The white paper is not a gospel.

This is a technology project. It's okay to rethink the possible ways of solving the problem 8 years into it.

This is why there's thousands of new crypto-currency designs improving on the flaws of Satoshi's implementation.

Not only is it easy to start fresh, but it's measurably more fair for new users to avoid BTC/ETH and other early cryptocoins which use manipulative ponzi/pyramid like work:coin production:time algorithms which exploit "late" users.
