Incentives matter
If your a dev and your making a decision on a Purely technical reason but your economically Illiterate and you do not understand what money is. And what kind of properties money needs to have You may make a decision that gives you side effects that are unwanted and i think that is what happened with #bitcoin core v30
I think to a certain extent thats what happened to taproot
I wish more technical people in #Bitcoin were more economically literate and i wish more economically literate people where more technical
