You might want to question your own assumptions as well. Couldn't the fact that Bitcoin is less mature in many ways than fiat currencies be a result of the fact that Bitcoin was invented just 5 years ago? There was no involuntary deposit insurance for USD when USD was 5 years old.

Thank you. It is very frustrating to have a conversation with someone expecting a new technology to be fully baked upon delivery. Everything takes time, although in Bitcoin's case, it seems like a rocket ride compared to other technology adoption curves.
