Anyway, I don't recall advocating XT in this thread. I asked the question of how blockstream will profit, which apparently no one can answer.
Was my answer any good? As I said, I think it's possible that there isn't a complete/definitive to your question, and that's because the system is still in development. Still needs answering but I'm not really sure what else anyone could do right now.
You may be right , or it could be bad for their business strategy to reveal it.
I think they should try to be as transparent as possible, but there may be indeed a conflict of interest. Time will tell.
