I did say you eventually relented on it, but again I'm simply pointing out that responding to user feedback on a beta with rudeness and hostility kinda defeats the purpose of a public beta.

And let's be real, so many people disliked your implementation that you knew someone would call your bluff and fork your client if you didn't change it, and many of your users would rather use that fork.

I also note you didn't respond to my rather obvious point that adding support for additional elliptic curves doesn't require a hard fork of anything. This isn't a blockchain where changing the cryptography creates a new consensus protocol.

This is a decentralised network built on top of TCP/IP where clients can add support for additional curves while providing backwards compatibility - exactly as TLS, SSH, and PGP have already done many times.

That's why my SSH and PGP keys use Ed25519 without requiring a fork.
