The situation is shitty. Blockchain forking is a tricky topic I stuck around mining some coins during forks before even including and algo switch once. I can't defend the wallet issue but one thing I can say is that right now the mining power is the lowest it ever will be and the block reward allocation for those of us mining right now is up and once the controversy settles and the coin is working with all new features nobody else has, many will be wishing they got some of this launch mining themselves
