Long term recalibration means people have to make long term decisions based on real world long term spans of interest in real world long term projects.
You want miners, who are by nature opportunists, to work for the long term interest of the coin at their own personal costs? Such miners don't exist because of real-world concerns, like return on investment and opportunity costs.
Look at the lead developer. His present real world concerns has put his own coin on the back burner. Don't expect miners to act any differently.
You're proving my point.
The rabbit on crack whining has driven away the lead developer to deal with, wait for it, real world concerns.
Maybe he'll come back when people start acting real world.
But my lack of faith should not disappoint you.
