I'm not reading the portion of this post that doesn't apply to me. I have things to do.
Boldface is mine:
So Gavin believes there's an equal chance that Craig is a "master scammer." The narrative that he completely believes Wright is Satoshi has been bogus since before BSV was even an idea.
Soooooo... Let me get this straight. After he played a pivotal rôle in the creation of a monster, your excuse for Gavin is that he equivocates?
What? No you goof. I'm not "excusing" Gavin -- I'm simply relaying his _actual words_, which are _less_ favorable for BSV than BSV shills would have us believe. Admittedly I don't know if he put an equal weight on both scenarios. He might favor one more than the other.
How do you twist this into me making excuses for Gavin?
...and that he sometimes may whine that, in substantial effect, would you please ignore something that is very embarrassing to himwhich he himself is too dishonest, too cowardly, and/or too compromised to repudiate with the same mass-media Bitcoin Foundation Chief Scientist starburst as with which he originally verified Faketoshi?
Truth be told, Gavin did far more for bitcoin than you and I ever have and ever will so if the man wants to have an opinion, let him have it.
Gavin has done massive actual harm: Bitcoin Foundation, XT, Faketoshi verification, Btrash shilling... You are defending him because he says theres an equal chance that Craig Wright is either a scammer or Satoshi!?
If I were in less of a mood I would be inclined to tell you to go fuck yourself.
