I think that this is the key point:as for Gavin Andresenone worth repeating anywhere that his lukewarm semi-retraction is brought out (usually followed by a plea to please stop talking about this, for it is
embarrassing to Gavin):
This is not a matter of opinion. (Not in the colloquial sense of that word, anyway.) Craig Wrights claim of Satoshihood presents a question of fact. Gavin Andresens 2016 verification of Faketoshi presents a compound question of factcompound, insofar as it invokes many factual questions about Gavin and cui bono?
So no, he shouldnt be able to have an opinion that Craig Wright might be Satoshior rather, his such opinion should absolutely and irreparably ruin his reputation, in the same manner as if a Chief Scientist of the Geophysics Foundation were to opine that the Earth might be flat.
Moreover, in no case whatsoever should Faketoshi be ignored. That was my mistake, for yearsa grievous error in judgment, which I am now striving to correct.
As to Craig Wright, of course, the only question worth addressing is
the threshold question of a verifiable signed message from Satoshi. Gavins significance here is that he abused his reputation falsely to boost Faketoshi over that thresholdthen later, much equivocated. He has never come clean about the whole affairand at this point, after nearly four years of massive, ongoing
actual damage caused by his false verification, it is long past too late for him, in my opinion.

Don't think for one second that you can come into a topic like this to twist the narrative. You will be crucified. I suggest you go find another topic to troll.
You are one of the ones who got scammed and you are keeping the false narrative alive.
Indeed. For reference:

An Unnecessary Condition
You need to know someones identity to say that stated identity is stolen or not.
Not so. It is not necessary to identify Satoshi to prove by clear and convincing evidence, or even beyond a reasonable doubt, that a given individual is not Satoshiand moreover, that false claims of Satoshihood are just that.
I am certain beyond a reasonable doubt that Craig Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto. I dont need to identify Satoshi to reach that certainty.
