Doesn't sound snarky, more like armchair therapist possibly projecting their own issues. Exploring fresh ideas is fun and relaxing for some people.

This only works under the assumption that your activity would have had absolutely no impact on the market. The real world is complex and interconnected, and everyone is monitoring each other closely.

An honest debater attacks the strongest points, not the weakest ones. All you've done is given the parent comment the experience to make all examples in a list roughly equally bad.

I'm not sure if this is supposed to be a criticism of bitcoin's utility or not, but if it is I think you missed the point. The point is she has more currency units now than before, because she didn't have to pay the bid bad b

No guarantees. Why do you need guarantees? What's the cost of downloading the competitor's app? Even make your own non-discriminatory rideshare service, but if it's not sustainable, don't force the cost on others.

Everything has a guaranteed failure rate higher than 0, so is all insurance unprofitable? The warranty example is bad because warranties end instead of getting renewed. They'd happily renew the insurance for the cost of a new product
