You have plenty of them yourself, did you not?

What's yours?

I won't let you answer principles of crypto law questions with politics or governance outcomes questions. We want different things and we don't have an exhaustive list of the disputes that might get into in the future. We need to focus on the process and operation of crypto law!

But principles depend on broad generalizations of what kinds of outcomes we like!

Yes, but that's the easy part. How do we govern in the case of disputes?

One possible answer is: choose the side that does not alter blockchains for non technical reasons. Whether you accept or reject that depends on your outcome preferences.

What about trying more explicitly to facilitate competing opt-in, consent-based dispute resolution processes?

Sorry, but we need to deal with public law, not just private law
