Amazing. I've been waiting for you to write this, or something like it. Not only do you understand, but you speak with complete honesty...no conflict of interest, ever.
As I was reading the end of your blog I was thinking about the Ninja Stake in more general terms, in terms of polity. In the U.S. over the years, we have given (not me, ever) more and more power to the federal government. The selling point has always been that it is for national security. Of course, the assumption underlying this transfer of power from people to government is based on the premise that good actors will be in government. But power is power. Once you've given it, it is possessed by the person in control. That's kind of like the Ninja Stake. There was all that potential power, with a promise that good actors would behave for the benefit of all. But nothing in the system protects against abuse by bad actors.
I hope you don't mind my going on. The math may be beyond me, but the sense of the discussion is not.
There are other parallels to a civic polity, but I won't bore you with them.
Thank you for this analysis.
