Bitcoin only works peer to peer.

Pointing to the Bitcoin white paper 📝 gives off Bcash, Big Blocker, Roger Ver vibes.

Users choose how they use a thing. The original use case for Twitter is not the current one as far as I know.

Very good perspective Fren

What don't you like about the paper and who is doing what you say?

The Bitcoin White Paper is awesome but people try to use it like some Bible. Software evolves over time. You might create software for Purpose #1 but then find out later by the users that this software is better at solving for Purpose #2.

The title of the paper is the most uninteresting thing about it. There are some properties of bitcoin that are the true innovation and foundational definition of what it is. I don't care if the majority consensus decides to ditch them. I would reject their new definition of bitcoin. There is no way to trustlessly determine majority consensus based on opinion alone. That's the whole point of bitcoin.
