the timing was a dick move. Also I don’t like so much of the chain being controlled by one person. I do think most projects need to treat DHF support as a temporary thing

valid point, but such is the nature of the free market. I see a lot of people upset that few accounts control the resources of our blockchain, but some of these accounts hold a tiny fraction of their earnings still in the wallets.
the more centralized things get the less free the market will be. This push and pull seems to be the basis for most political disagreements. I don’t have an answer but it sure would be nice if we could figure out how to discourage (not disallow) people from trying to own more than 1%. Not sure it’s possible when we have multiple accounts and I don’t think we should sacrifice that either.
Best we can do is create a good culture that values decentralization.
Hence why all ideologies are Horseshoes, yet the people defending them always seem to forget this fact. That being said, there is no such thing as a perfect system either. All we can do is attempt to modify the set of incentives to move the needle in the desirable direction.
I should also say that I'm confident Blocktrades knows the if he was to turn tyrannical, he would effectively be destroying his own investment. Even if he is wrong here, and he could be, I'm sure he believes he's doing the right thing.
