The Core code base is unfriendly to feature extensions because of its criticality, legacy design and ancient technology. It is also a commodity that the ecosystem takes for granted and free. I honestly admire the core team that works and progresses within these limits and perception. I am not willing to work within the core’s legacy technology limits. Does it mean I am dicking around? I think not. It was my way to go down the rabbit hole by re-digging it and I created successful commercial products on the way. It is entirely rational for me to focus on innovation that uses the core as a border router for this block chain. I am rather thankful for the ideas of the side chains, that enable innovation that is no longer measured on unapologetic compatibility with a given code base, but its services to end user.
