I’m just curious about why you think you end up getting to consensus. When we look at open source projects, sometimes they don’t get to consensus and you get what’s known as the fork, right? The project goes in a different direction to the original. That’s certainly happened in cryptocurrencies with Bitcoin forks as well. That’s not so much of a choice on a sort of regular basis within a government or a nation state, but what do you think it is about the design of the system that takes people towards a consensus rather than a forking?
