>How can you be so emotional about tech?
For the same reason people get emotional whenever they see something they like being captured by hucksters. If you like woodworking would you not be mad if the workshop next door gets replaced by a Pachinko parlor?
"Maybe there's a middle ground" is the same kind of statement as "NFTs are awful, but the blockchain itself is brilliant!". Yet the crazy financial schemes keep proliferating and you still don't see blockchains anywhere else.
