Intent is a part of the law, not only actions. If you use an exploit in computer systems to get unauthorized access you cant just say "well, thats how its designed, write better programs next time". Retroactive taxes should apply

BTC miners buy the energy to power their nodes and that cost is passed to the users in transaction fees. The only legitimate criticism here may be that energy prices dont account for the externalities of carbon emissions. But thats irreleva

Its not BTC miners fault that energy is priced incorrectly. We shouldnt waste any energy into powering the armies of the world, lets just not fight, right? But here we are.
