The main advantages of Ethereum over Bitcoin is that people in control are qualified and expected to not screw everything, unlike Core people.

You must be oblivious to the development crisis's and mistakes in Ethereum and the flight of developers from that project.

I think its main advantage could be that the founder of the project is still there and functions as a "natural consensus". Also its good that his identity is known.

Apart from that ETH could get the same problems and civilwars that Bitcoin is experiencing.

Good point.

All this cultist crap around Satoshi is not healthy.

Have to admit sometimes it's a bit worrying...

"Hey what if we do that"
"Satoshi didn't invent bitcoin for that"
"Yeah but that would be cool no?"
"It's not what Satoshi wanted"

Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeh...
Who cares who the inventor of the protocol is. The fact that we've gotten this far without him is proof that we can go even further. You don't see Étienne Lenoir improving the gasoline engine nowadays and pulling the strings what could and could not be implemented.
