It's a bit of chicken and egg. If someone hasn't seen the "magic" and only sees a massive technical discussion focused on why it's not working.... they'll never try it. And subsequently will have no reason to later advocate for better solutions. Someone presented with this might write off bitcoin altogether because it's perceived as "not useable"
But an admittedly overly cheerleading front could be enough to push someone thru the pain points to at least try it. This is where I see custodial solutions having a big positive use-case. Sure a handful will get disillusioned and dissapointed but at least they tried it. I think the majority will see the benefits and the possibilities and understand its still early tech. At this stage, we introduce the problems... but only after they've been hooked on the potential possibilities. Sure it's not 100% there yet but it can and will be soon(tm). This is how we then build more advocates for better solutions.
