Well, I think it has something more to do with Peter R being a skilled and serial manipulator of basic facts, in order to bring about a corporate takeover of the Bitcoin network.
I don't like him either, for those reasons.
BTW, can't help but be reminded of bitcointalk user Elwar's description of how to avoid potential espionage agents at public meetups.... Peter R seems very keen to put names to faces and also appears to be unusually athletic for a computer science geek....

So now everyone who has arguments supporting implementations other than Core is a secret service agent working in some hideous plan to destroy Bitcoin?
First it was Gavin and Hearn, and now even Peter R is one of them. Do you really believe this?
Who said that?
All I'm doing is relaying what another user (who works in the intelligence services) told us to look out for. What you think of that is up to you. I was never one of the people who accused Hearn or Andresen of being plants, but it's highly likely given the circumstances. But no explicit evidence exists, and so making such allegations directly has no merit. And so I didn't do it. And haven't done so since.
Are you part of the contingent that likes to pretend that it's "all like it is in the movies", and that the intelligence services have no interest in something like steering the direction of bitcoin? Deluded position, you should learn something about the topic before you try to offer a credible view.
