I think it's being fashioned into an "US vs THEM" conflict because people on the Core side do the old trust the experts line while people on the RDTS side are hand waving away the potential for it to go very badly. Meanwhile, the root cause goes untouched and undiscussed. The old Overton window trick.

> the potential for it to go very badly. More badly that already is? Have you seen the chain under the hood?

Yes, not directly, but indirectly. Giving people the idea that a contentious soft pork pushed through without a URSF it's not only doable, but more likely. To be fair, to BIP110 though, the SegWit soft fork really opened this door and BIP110 methodology is just widening it. Remember, there's literally nothing anyone can do about someone spinning up fake pubkeys. That is a serious validation vulnerability and I don't think there's any (palatable) way to do anything about that.
