I woke up to an unexpected backlash from my post yesterday about splitting treasuries from dying projects and @Cnote203 chiming in. So let's clear some things up.
For those that missed it, here is the original post
While the post was inspired by the ATLAS situation, as I had already mentioned, I made the post to apply this more broadly to any project. I had already said this in the thread yesterday
While I thought about the chance of having an unfavourable interpretation, I believed I had easily avoided this given that I said "It's still way better than doing nothing but should be the last option".
The post was made more so with the intention of not normalizing this as an easy way out for projects IF there is a possibility of trying to keep the project going. This is because the "refund" that people get by sharing the treasury is usually little.
If the project can keep going and simply pivot as needed, that's generally better. If that's not possible with Atlas, then it isn't. And if there isn't anything else that can be done, then obviously the treasury should be split, as claimed in my post.
For people that somehow took this to mean that I prefer projects to rug and simply take everyone's money... I can't fantom how you possibly understood that, and such people clearly don't know me or my page at all.
Loki's act is very praiseworthy, I commented on it positively as soon as he announced it, long before I made my thread.
I also commended his work regarding the ATLAS's situation privately on Discord before I opened Twitter and saw the shitshow that followed.
TLDR I have nothing against Loki or what he is doing for Atlas. My goal was that IF there are other options, they should be explored first.
Nevertheless, I understand I could have phrased that better and avoid this drama. Lesson learned.

@Cnote203 An interesting observation is that out of all the people criticizing me in the old thread, after they were proven wrong, none have replied back.
