The change in block size or “velocity of information” on Bitcoin is done through node consensus… that’s what makes it decentralized and secure. That’s literally what eliminates a need for a third party. By invoking a 'God' or an abstract, pre-ordained authority to define these constants, you are actually arguing for a the worst form of centralization in physics and bitcoin simultaneously. You're treating the universe like a centralized server where the laws are 'defined' by an admin. That isn't how physics works, and it certainly isn't how Bitcoin works. We don't need a cosmic 'God' to define constants, just as we don't need a central bank to define value. Both are emergent, bottom-up phenomena. If you believe the universe requires a Lawgiver, you are admitting that you prefer a centralized architecture for reality.

hmmm. I think there a distinction in the two: the meaning of “what happens” is only intelligible within a context of purpose. where as “why speed of light is constant” doesn’t require a purpose to answer or phrased differently, i think the outputs of those questions belong to different categories. would have to think more on that, very interesting stuff needless to say
