The beautiful mathematical design of Bitcoin just makes sense.

The very moment Bitcoin's basic principles / ideas underlying Bitcoin system were explained to me I knew Bitcoin is a scientific beauty. I am a mathematical layman, but the beauty of the concept simply floored me. Just like Mona Lisa smile would floor a neanderthal.

This is arbitrary.

Yes, it is. I thought that how Botcoin system works cannot be changed unless 100% of the participants agree. Being a silly newbie I realize that I might not be understanding the exact, the whole and the true picture of the case though.

Out of curiosity:

1. Why not 100 or 1000 micro BTC, but 54 BTC? 100 or 1000 is nicer and divides better.

2. Couldn't devs spend their valuable time on providing upgrades with non-controvertial features?
