I think the current devs should be far more humble. It's only once in a century -- or maybe ten centuries -- that a discovery like Bitcoin is made. It should be approached with a reverence compared to which mere conservatism would look like libertine excess. The vibes I'm getting from Core and their sycophants is the opposite of what is needed: "We are anarchic geniuses, you know nothing compared to us, only we 'know what bitcoin is'; we've got a lot of things we want to try -- wheee! -- so just shut up, stop spoiling our fun, and enjoy the anarchy."
