Appreciate your input.
On the last part, that illustrates a big difference in perspective - while I totally get that you could read his post as a criticism of various Core devs for 'blocking' or similar, I didn't read it like that; I feel like he's mostly describing that the dynamics don't allow consensus to be reached.
It's all hard to define but I don't see how we're going to get to the kind of consensus you're describing or looking for.
As a concrete-ish example, take op_ctv, how much of the nonconsensus is 'we're not at all ready to say a different version of this idea isn't better?'. How much weight is given to the philosophical perspective of those who don't even *want* covenants? I have no idea how to do that, or if I should want to. Overall the bar just seems insanely high for any *meaningful* soft fork change.
I'm speaking as an outsider mostly of course, so my opinion on these things needs a big caveat.
