It wasn't a trainwreck; it worked exactly as it should.

Bitcoin is not a system for those that favor changing the rules once the game is in play.

Bitcoin has gone through lots of changes. For example, the blocksize limit was added in July 2010, a year and a half after launch.

It isn't a system where large mining corporations are supposed to have a hangman's noose around it, either.
