Let's not fool ourselves as Bitcoiners. We came very close to borking the entire system in 2018. https://cointelegraph.com/news/inflation-bug-still-a-danger-to-more-than-half-of-all-bitcoin-full-nodes

In the end, a transparent blockchain is no substitute for code audits, and there is no 100% guarantee that developers won't mess up again in the future.

(This is also what bothers me about the "Bitcoin is antifragile" mantra. The mantra is true only from a certain point of view (outside attacks). But from another point of view (developers messing up), it is very fragile indeed.)

Very few Bitcoiners are fully honest about this issue.
