I see your interpretation now, my apologies. When I read "scheme" I understood that to be slander and mean satoshi had malicious intentions. If you understand scheme to simply be a benign way of suggesting his plan was wrong then it de-escalates this entire conversation.

I thought you were defending the a comment claiming satoshi was being malicious. I would've done better to search for a more charitable interpretation.

Persono, I think that Satoshi was an idealist but not a saint and the reasons that the funds have not been accessed are not due to altruism.

If Satoshi did stretch the truth or lie in that quote, I would be inclinded to view it as motivated by ideolatry rather than greed. However, any speculation as to motives is fairly pointless given the lack of information.
