You conflate addresses with users. It's not good practice to keep all your coins on one address.

I understand it fine.

I don't

It's bitcoiners that do that.

if they said there are 6 millions addresses but it's actually a couple thousands entities holding them, it would be too obvious that bitcoins serve an insignificant portion of the society, usually already very rich.

The fact that having a single address it's not good practice it's proof that bitcoins are inherently unsafe

imagine if bank said "it's good practice to own many bank accounts". how many people would trust them with their money?
