If you are engaging with Udi in one of the spaces and tell everyone in that space that don't invest or trust in Gayroot Wizard, it would still give Udi relevance to the bitcoin. I think you are smart enough to understand what I am saying here.
You think that you don't want to have influence like Saylor but subconsciously you want to have influence like Saylor and maybe there is really nothing bad in that as long as you prioritize monetary maximalism of bitcoin over anything else.
I already mentioned that I am not fan of Saylor too but instead of constantly shitting on Saylor for shitcoin treasury companies, influence Bitcoin so hard from monetary maximalism perspective that he would bend the knee one day against you.
I would say the sooner you acknowledge the mistake on funding commie core devs the lesser reputational hit would be on your end (in the long run)
