Yes, and arguably any forced whitelisting makes non-whitelisted bitcoin more valuable. It’s terrible for people in those jurisdictions but doesn’t affect the bitcoin network as a whole.
I believe devs should follow the principle of, “first, do no harm”.
If there is potential risk, then we need to find a different way. Nobody can assess the magnitude of the risk.
We need to think long term and protect bitcoin for future generations.
