Thanks for taking the time to write such a detailed reply.
I'm glad that the big address isn't staking. I agree that development should be funded on projects. Your time is valuable and your behavior makes it clear you are interesting in long term benefits from a healthy project. Properly aligned developer and coin incentives are a win-win.
Airdrops are tricky. Small airdrop might give people some skin in the game and be a good way to onboard them onto the exchange to buy more.
Your coins so your call on a burn. Small burns are more about PR/price bump for coins which already have attention, not to grow a base.
I look forward to updated wallet and running a node. Risk/reward on this project seems good.
