> you've cherry-picked the exact point in time... I picked this number because it's what I paid yesterday > lol, nope. let me guess, `geth --fast`? well, i suggest you go read up on what `--fast` means. i challenge you to try syncing from the genesis block. I used Parity, and instead of suggesting I "go read up on" something I already understand, maybe you'd be more convincing if you made an argument as to why the difference should matter (it doesn't). > bunch of broad, abstract claims I can't argue with any of those because you didn't provide any reasoning or facts to address.
