Well, as you are not new you seem to have ignored the discussions around it for at least 3 to 4 years. What does that tell me about you?

It at least tells me that most Bitcoiners so far did not learn anything from Monero's past which to me signals that Bitcoin is not fit to challenge the state apparatus. You either do have exceptional observation, adversarial thinking and executing strategies (like early Btcoiners from 2009-2012) or you will get played by forces that do.
