So you believe that whoever was upset with the blocksize/management changes that would have been introduced in XT has been placated by this more inclusive effort? And that this actor will not attempt to sabotage the rollout of Classic as they did with XT?

They absolutely will. At this point though the first alternative implementations helped people calibrate to the dishonesty of the group of people who has worked so hard to censor and alienate everyone who might compromise the need for their company, blockstream.

Most people really gave them way too much credit and took them at their word, but it's been dug into the ground at this point that they are going to try to lie, censor, and outright sabotage any attempt to adapt bitcoin since they think creating problems gives them an opportunity to solve them.
