Yes. Shows that all these buzzword modifier phrases “decentralized”, “permissionless”, “censorship-resistant”, “passes the walk-away test” should never be interpreted as absolute binary properties but more like design goals or guiding principles. More like useful shorthands for statements shaped like “minimize {time, money, marginal human effort} needed to keep {valuable stated invariant} true assuming {software/hardware landscape, adversarial environment, projected state of the world} for the next {aspirationally long period of time}”
