I would have to say this is a very good thing indeed... The SegWit2 fork was for all practical purposes an attempted takeover and would have evolved to completely eliminate the decentralized nature of Bitcoin. Like yourself I don't have a total grasp of all the nuance associated with crypto's, but everything I could sponge up about this fork told me it was bad news - may it die a thousand deaths and NOT rest in peace...
I'm really hoping the Wild Wild West of cryptocurrency continues on.
To that I say... Me Too...
