This is too broad.

Obviously I haven't been spending any significant amount of time attempting to improve any of the technology, because I've got obligations, and my skillsets aren't really that suited towards cryptography. (I did briefly read up on the Legendre symbol to see if I could think of anything interesting to say about their proposed use of it as a PRF, but unsurprisingly, especially seeing as I didn't take all that much time thinking about it, but would still be unsurprising even if I had, I did not think of anything even marginally interesting to say about it.) (edit : I mention this only in order to demonstrate/claim that my attitude towards the research being done is positive, and if I thought I could contribute usefully towards the efforts of getting it to proof of stake, without too big of a cost, I'd gladly do so, but because I can't, I don't. )

There's no conflict between saying "This is currently a concern. There's a potential solution being worked on which might address that concern, and that would be good. For the time being, it is still a concern."

There’s nothing wrong with pointing it out, we just both agree that your contributions don’t matter because they are nonexistent

I suppose I am responding to " never considering they could improve the technology because it never was about that for them, its just the latest goal post in wishing it would go away" which I interpreted as painting people who aren't contributing as having an adversarial attitude towards the development of the technology.

I’m only referring to the subset that are actually adversarial

Not referring to everyone that isn't or cant meaningfully contribute
