I absolutely agree with your comment. The choice of what software to run in a full node or mining is a vital choice we have as bitcoin loyalists. And your point about the controversy over ordinals, in my view foreshadows more controversies to come. I agree that early-stage code development was a great thing that birthed Bitcoin, but further development at this stage risks fragmenting bitcoin (see Ethereum as an example - after the switch to POS many miners revolted and backed Ethereum Classic).

In my opinion what's critical is that virtuous full nodes and loyalist keep the faith.

That virtuous full nodes and loyalist clearly understand what #Bitcoin Is! and what Bitcoin is Not!

Bitcoin is Virtuous hard money. It's the most secure financial Network in the world.

It's the only highly valuable personal property You! can Truly! own, and should last for thousands of years.

The full nodes and loyalist are responsible for all this. We are the ones that enforce the code and the protocol.

Regardless of what miners or developers do,

we are the ones that are responsible.

Whether they like it or not they are accountable to us. Just as we are accountable for the purity and virtuousness of the the code and the Bitcoin protocol we enforce.

There are no rock stars in Bitcoin. No gurus. No one is indispensable. Bitcoin doesn't care. We are but bitcoins servants and beneficiaries.
