Core is a project. It's a particular (the original/reference) implementation of Bitcoin components. There are devs that work on it.

"Support for Core" sounds weird. This is not team sports. Unlike bitcoin itself, the implementation and devs that work on it are not "the solution" to money.

It's really important that we are verbal when there are decisions we don't agree with or make us comfortable. This is not about feelings and supporting people. This is about opting in/out of (voting for) changes.

The devs and others involved with pushing that PR were sketchy. The follow-ups were arrogant and dismissive. It's obvious that people will lose confidence in that. And it's really good to see that people have shown they won't just accept every change as gospel.

We want a better money. That's it. The core impl. and all the devs that have worked on it up until now have done a great job, and there have been many arguments along the way. It's important. It's good for bitcoin. But we need humility, transparency and better communication if it's going to continue to be the primary impl. that everyone uses.
