Clearing up some common misconceptions about Bitcoin...

That's a good thing. People don't want their store of value to be changing the rules on them. A lack of bitcoin development is a feature as opposed to a bug in terms of it working as a store of value.

Slow development is feature on my coin, but Bitcoin is completely different story...

How is a feature on your coin?

Mining pools want stable daemon, because every time the daemon(s) crash or stall, the pool operator loses the pool's share of block reward... If the pool misses a lot of potential blocks, users eventually switch to another pool or mining another coin.

Ok, but that is only one aspect or use case of it.

True... But as someone who started as a mining pool software developer, it's what I know best... It's true I also work on GUI and command-line wallets, but mining pools use neither as they use wallet daemon which is separate executable, but sometimes shares same backend code.

Interesting. I see.
