I agree. I am also a fan of constructive criticism. We can point out alot of things that are not ideal but it is much more important to think about what we can do about it. You cannot change history. So what options do we have? Start over and try to make it better or try to improve gridcoin to make it as great as it deserves to be? Since I beliefe the decisions made in the past were made in good faith and approved by the then active community I am on bord with the latter.
cryptocurrencies are a great experiment and I can definitley see Gridcoin moving in the right direction and learning from the past.

And by the way I don't think there is an objective view on how a "fair" distribution scheme looks like. If you take a look at all the cryptocurrencies out there, there are nearly as many distribution schemes.
