āMr. Rearden,ā said Francisco, his voice solemnly calm, āif you saw Atlas, the giant who holds the world on his shoulders, if you saw that he stood, blood running down his chest, his knees buckling, his arms trembling but still trying to hold the world aloft with the last of his strength, and the greater his effort the heavier the world bore down upon his shouldersāwhat would you tell him to do?ā

back to your question, my hot take is it doesnāt matter whose is best or how itās monetised - it only matters that itās easy to switch. therefore, that should always be top of mind at the protocol development level. i.e. no āfeatureā should ever increase the likelihood of client lock-in, even a little, even for one person, even hypothetically.
Iāve been obsessing over this for the past few days, remembering #[2] ās amazing talk in Lugano - legit the best talk Iāve ever heard at a bitcoin conference. unfortunately I canāt find any video but he wrote it up here:
