You seem to be under the impression that a pool must broadcast a block to minimize risk of it being orphaned. This isn't remotely true and was a weird part of your celebration with the FutureBit block last month.
Blocks are tiny and propagate really fast. We....kind of fought a war about maintaining that. Remember?
Really don't appreciate you asserting that I'm trying to be disingenuous or evasive here, you genuinely don't seem to have a firm grasp of where the bottlenecks actually lie.
You're imagining that it's better for a miner to tell a pool about a block and leverage their supposed superior connectivity rather than tell the network about it directly.
Amazingly, adding a middle man only slows things down.
How about if you don't want to be precived as acting coy you try answering direct questions with direct answers.
Large pools are directly connected to each other with WireGuard tunnels globally, that's where the term Super Node comes from. They do this so that when they find a block the other super nodes know about it nearly instantly so that they can minimize the risk of having a block orphaned.
An average home user doesn't have that kind of connectivity and there is a higher risk of their blocks being orphaned because of it. That's all I'm saying so don't spin like I think pools have to be the broadcaster.
It was not a weird celebration that we pointed out our Apollo block find wasn't orphaned, it is a note worthy accomplishment and a testament to the way John has engineered his product.
That's the most retarded conclusion you could have drawn from this dialog. You have sucessfully made up an entire narative in your own head unrelated to my points. Thank you for making it painfully clear you're a complete douche bag incapable of abstract thought beyond a 4th grade level.
