Political philosophy kinda has to be about persons and how to actuate them towards desired ends. It's futile & wayward in a noumenal vacuum.

Then we have this nice dichotomy between the 'no meat' faction and the 'lead me papa' faction. Solution in the no-man's land between them.

'No meat' can't test. 'Lead me papa' stops following if 'papa' changes his mind. Iteration is necessary, so both are stillborn.

'No meat' is cryptographic innovation. 'Lead me papa' is the entertainment channel.

They adopt it because Satoshi was able to convince them it was useful. It does not go around being convincing itself.

To be blunt, if good ideas were apt to spread themselves, my blog would be wildly popular. Or if not mine, someone's.

Satoshi makes a working prototype. It is functional. Hey, guess what a working prototype of a political philosophy looks like?
