IPv4 addresses ran out too. It doesn't mean it had no purpose. In due time, more than 2 million addresses can be accommodated, if there is demand for it down the road. Chains can evolve. For now this is a great feature that no other CN coin has and can serve well within its limitations. It should be appreciated, not dung-coated as something bad. I doubt bagholders who are dedicated to one coin world domination have any desire to see any success from any other coin.
The concern trolling from certain individuals brings out the stubbornness, if there is something like that, in Zoidberg. He knows the folks who have no interest in this project, but keep bringing up concocted problems and concerns about it, while silently hoping it all just goes away.
You're like the most defensive person ever.
I didn't say it was bad, I effectively said:
The alias system needs work, and instead of saying it is this way because of "vision" Zoidberg should instead work on making it better right now, especially because Zoidberg was earlier saying he wants all the tech in place asap because he is against hardforks.
So waiting for a while to fix the alias system is actually counter to Zoidberg's philosophy.
This is my first post that I actually tried to give some useful advice to Zoidberg, it's actually in my interest for Zoidberg to leave the alias system in the current state it is in.
*shrugs* Making a big deal of aliases is like pointing out that you don't like the color the tail of a new airplane is painted. Sure, it's a completely valid complaint, but it perhaps it's not the major issue.
I actually like that aliases are one per block for now. It seems like a reasonable way to start, a nifty feature to encourage miners, and a way to start exploring the concept. It's obviously not the One True System For Everything, but you've got to start somewhere, and this provides an initial way to gain feedback and experience with the idea. If nobody uses them or hates them for some reason, experiment done, rip them out, fin. If the demand exceeds the # of blocks (which it certainly hasn't yet. :-), then add another mechanism for creating them. It's not clear that such a change would even require a hardfork - there are many ways to add them such that they would propagate but only upgraded clients could send to them. That's a pretty reasonable soft upgrade path.
To re-use one of my favorite sayings, from Voltaire: The perfect is the enemy of the good (roughly, from "Dit que le mieux est l'ennemi du bien").
It's usually better to have something as a reasonable start up & running than to never release anything because it's not perfect.
But aliases are a relatively minor feature compared to some of the big features, so getting overly stuck on them seems not entirely profitable.
