As far as intellectual dishonest goes, storing your wealth in physical items that are in your physical possession is something that people actually do. I personally don't do that, but the reality is that some people don't trust banks and they don't trust a network of computers. To say that it is dishonest to point out that there were already alternatives to banks seems inaccurate.
