Is jbreher actually selling BCH as BTC or is he simply saying that BCH is in some way better than BTC?

As I quoted, he repeatedly said that BCH is Bitcoin (before he switched to BSV...).

Indeed.

I have never said (at least as far as I can recall) that BCH is BTC.

And inasmuch as the BCH protocol is a more faithful rendition of the protocol that Satoshi left us with than is BTC, and inasmuch as BCH is more faithful to the Bitcoin white paper (i.e., the actual encoded definition of what it is for something to be Bitcoin, and as encoded by its creator, at that) than is BTC, I at least have a principled leg to stand upon in stating that BCH is Bitcoin.

All you have buttressing any supposed claim of BTC upon that title is popularity. Which can flip on a dime. IOW, no objective basis for the claim.
Well, other than the facts that BTC is SHA256 PoW, and that the BTC chain traces directly back to the Satoshi genesis block.
Which, to belabor the obvious, are not properties exclusively claimed by BTC.

This is rich:

we will reach the point of debating whether jbreher would have a free speech argument when I kick his door down and drag him off to forking prison. Or when I otherwise effectually censor him

'kick my door down'? What is this metaphorical door of which you speak? 'drag him off'? You realize this is not a physical encounter we are having here, right? (I mean, I guess you could try...) 'forking prison'? What is this mythical place? Where be it? What are its (presumably nasty, brutish, and short) attributes? 'censor him'? Go ahead and try, junior. I am secure in my convictions. I stand by my statements, and have nothing to fear by you calling attention to them. Indeed, such will only serve to buttress my arguments. As such, I have nothing to 'lose' by any attempts you make to 'trash' my 'reputation'. Even to any extent that you may think yourself 'successful' to that end.

Incidentally, you sound like a third-grader in that outburst.

Local rules: In the interest of fairness, jbreher shall be accorded the reasonable right to answer in his own defence

How magnanimous of you We've already seen how unreasonable your 'reasonable' can be.

Though I guess I should be ecstatic you're donning a public veneer of fairness. Woo-hoo! Here - have a merit. The forum doesn't support me awarding you 1/2016 of a merit.

You haven't really shown how exactly he's a high risk in a trade. You have shown him having unpopular opinions.

Indeed. I have committed the tallest unspeakable blasphemies against the high priests and priestesses of the only true religion of BTC. For this, I must be simultaneously drawn and quartered, and burned at the stake. Lest Satoshi himself rain down unimaginable retribution and pestilence against those of insufficient zealotry and misguided mercy.
