It is much more complicated. First, Cardano use in-house built pull based network layer, so the attacker cannot exhaust your node even cannot do some resource attack against it, and even if some attacker is connected to your node and do some nasty stuff that causes protocol violation, it is just simply discomnected and dropped out of the 1000 cold list of other nodes in the aueue, and needs to wait a lot of time to rebuild its reputation. Anyway, it is very complex with a lot of mitigations of these kind of attacks. Secondly, you need money lot of money and bribe almost 500 pools (assuming nash) to be successfully alter the chain, it is like bribe 500 bitcoin miner pool from a theoretical 1000 evenly distributed hashpowers bitcoin miners/pools.

Sorry, but for me, there are no idols and gods exist, but simply fallible humans, with no exception.

Is it realistic, assuming a heterogenous network the Internet, for having high percentage of block dissemination and 100 confirmations in almost every node in 12 seconds (and how many peer connections are assumed per node?) Would not that segment the network? Sorry, I am just asking as I have no knowledge how ETH 2.0 and its LMD GHOST works.

Afaik, long range attack is eliminated by bootstrapping from genesis, where the densest chain is selected.

What is your point? One wrote something 5-years ago, when Ouroborus was not even invented at all, does it mean is it still hold?

Or do you want to believe that's still true because it would be very inconvenient to your biases (we all have our own biases) otherwise?

Sorry, I really did not want to be rude, just tried to find out whether you're trying to seek for the truth or just want to be right.
