Are you a developer excited about a crazy powerful technology that you think should be added to the protocol? Stop! Just stop. 

I’m sure you’re super smart and your new thing could do so much. But wait. A powerful new technology could be used in unknown ways. This means you have no idea how your change might be abused in the future. 

Something that you’re pretty sure is probably not harmful is not appropriate for a protocol that safeguards the world’s money now and for centuries to come. Changes to the protocol must be safe. You don’t get to gamble with our money.
