RE: Steem Consensus Witness Statement: Code Updated
Even 6 weeks worth of power down could have massive effects on Steem governance.

Sure, but this looks a lot like stealing. The precedent set from this cannot be undone. If this was truly done to protect steem then the Top 20 Witnesses should all step down indefinitely. It would give this movement a lot more credence.
Yeah but that's 6 weeks of warning time to prepare for it. You just fired a warning shot and accidentally punctured a hole in their haul, I'm sure that's going to go well.
Why? This SF is really just temporary without bad intentions. It's a protective measure, nothing more.
What is the sunset clause on this? Temporary is just a word until you set an end-point. If you said: "For 3 months until we have time to negotiate terms with the Tron team." That would be one thing but as it stands it might as well be until the heat death of the universe.
Don't forget, witnesses can change their mind or get voted out. If the community doesn't want this protection in place, it won't have it.
That's exactly what I did. Obviously I'm just a grain of salt so ultimately it doesnt matter
It means "for now", just like Justin Sun said he wouldnt initiate a swap "for now"....
A "for now" for a "for now" appears reasonably balanced! ;)
