I responded to your point that the mempool clearing is some sort of issue for bitcoin, which is it not.

Mining centralization is a different conversation, and not complete non-issue like the mempool clearing. So unless you want to support your claim that it is a real issue for bitcoin I don’t have anything else to add.

We’re all on the same team here, I’m just adding my two sats because it’s important to avoid the noise.
