1) if he want to build a Bitcoin that is proof of stake, just do it. No one is stopping you, if it is better people will adopt it

2) proof of stake is far worse, and negates the problem that Bitcoin solves, byzantine generals problem

3) Bitcoin miners are incentivized to use energy that he would say is approved, it makes them more money

I’m glad he is willing to talk

Honestly thought he demonstrated something that’s quite uncommon - he changed his mind when presented with convincing evidence counter to his beliefs instead of doubling down and refusing to hear the other side. The world needs more of the that.
