Monero is also much simpler in many ways. Supporting L2's properly requires a surprising amount of work on mempool behavior, and of course, a script system that Monero just doesn't have. Of course, I think Bitcoin Core has overcomplicated certain aspects of mempool behavior. But even ignoring that disagreement it would _still_ be much more complex than Monero.

I have a Monero node on my laptop – running in Qubes of course. On top of it being slow, the database implementation fragments the hell out of the disk image file due to how it does so many writes to arbitrary locations. One of these days I might just give up on that node... 😂
