I think we're in agreement, though: From the beginning, this discussion is about precisely that -- the word "decentralisation" usually entails a certain set of very specific properties so which properties, exactly, are we talking about here?
- lgas 10y agoIndeed.
- trentmc 10y agoDitto on agreement about what properties (including guarantees) a system provides. To me, definitions are nonetheless useful to help summarize a set of properties, help communication, and more. Even if people have different definitions, the definitions typically have similar themes; they're not totally arbitrary. For example, with "decentralization" you'd find a lot of people agreeing that "no single entity owns or controls" within the same theme as other definitions.
