i don't think that's bad.

it's not like in the past, "knowledge is power",

but rather "knowing where the knowledge is is power".

and that only works with open source.

I think publishing the source is something that is often seen as an alternative to writing clean code and testing properly.

Like hanging out a "Buyer Beware. No Refunds." sign.

They know that nobody will read it. And they definitely aren't going line-by-line through the entire src.

Most people don't even read the release notes.

Very different with slow-moving projects like Bitcoin Core. I've really read every line of that (and wish they would roll back LOL).
