I think fedimint bros think that they'll be the one runnung the fedimint, so they never consider the downsides.
I wouldn't use a fedimint run by my family or friends because I prefer not to have money involved in those relationships. Most people feel this way.
May take years of pain to realize that a dynamic federation kept sybill resistant and annonymous through proof of work is a good scaling solution but it will happen. Let's hope the self delusion of fedimint bros doesn't retard this realization for so long that another coin gets more network effect.
