If you're a lover of bitcoin, then you're....
If you're a knowledgeable lover of bitcoin, then you are aware of the fact there are many things which currently cannot be done with BTC, for example, advanced smart contracts and many of the great features of Chainlink - including effective communication with SQL databases! Who can show a "maximalist" solution with an entire list of currently missing BTC features?
Does the world need smart contracts? No it does not. So what exactly is Bitcoin missing, risky tradeoffs for features that mislead people about their usefulness? If you are a knowledgeable lover, you would know that Bitcoin does not have these features on purpose. Not because it can't, not because it doesn't know about them, but because they are bad for it.

One who is a bitcoin lover should not put an end to adopting altcoins as well as they can also be profitable especially if you chose those potential altcoins.
This is so wrong on many levels. You can't love Bitcoin and chase greed and scam projects. These two are not comparable.

I can say I’m a bitcoin maximalist but I don’t mess up with altcoins either.
You are not.
