I'm not liking SW the more I hear about it. Especially from this Lombrozzo guy. There's a lot of deception going on in this interview:

My biggest concern now, besides the preferential discount to encourage LN is this open, unfettered script versioning system that removes ALL barriers to change and restriction. Which is what devs love the most. IMO, this type of experimentation will lead to inflation at some point to provide windfall returns to investors and Blockstream core devs;
at our expense. I really mean that because all early adopters SOV still be degraded as the realization sets in that Bitcoin has turned into some WoW trading platform from a compromised corporate core dev team out for itself. Bitcoin is not enough for these criminals as a p2p digital cash system. They need to be able to tinker and inflate with all sorts of money schemes. You can hear it in his voice and see it in all their actions.
Going the other way with Satoshi's original vision otoh will allow Bitcoin to tap the biggest greatest market of all time; its brethren currencies in the Forex market. As the current crisis intensifies, which it will, we are going to see more QE and negative interest rates. If we can keep bitcoin pure and uncompromised, Bitcoin stands ready to accept a huge influx of that monetary printing. That will cause the price to Moon. But we have to get corporate corruption out of core dev before the Wall Street financial folk will come to the table.
We can do it.
