Knots is a copy of core with tiny small changes lol no core no improvements to bitcoin, or you suggest the hundreds of contributirs will now move to Knots?
Discussion
Right, honest developers should move to Knots and other implementations and create a true consensus.
I argue developers don't create consensus node runners do and besides maintaining several implementations bring higher risk of chain forks.
So I have to respectfully disagree.
But knots is good for building features that core doesn't have.
