... what you call a "misinterpretation" is really a different understanding of the word's meaning.
Ambiguity and loosely defined terms circulating around in the community have bad consequences. In my previous post, I've presented some examples.
Accusing proposed schemes and improvements to bitcoin of being vulnerable to double-spending (because PoW is kinda
suspicious to be 51% attacked by colliding pools/miners) is nothing less than cutting them out forever.
I'm not much of a conspiracy theory believer but I see a lot of bad incentives and I wouldn't be surprised if it found to be a deliberately implanted confusion. Anyway, it is time to get rid of this ambiguity and move forward, imo.
