cmom man, mining pools , not 2 miners , not a single handshake away, its a lot of individual miners the have to collude and can switch pools with one different login on 5 seconds, you are falling for a narrative. it can be better, will improve with stratum v2 , but it´s not the end of the world.

You’re conflating what I said and making assumptions about what I think.
Would you prefer a world with 20 equal sized mining pools, or a world with 1 mining pool that had 70% of hash all pointed at same node and same block?
Is one of these worlds more robust, or are they absolutely equal?
