my tldr; on hooks - no, hooks are not a mistake, but yes, there's enormous value in good actors calling out (and excluding) malicious hooks and in more detail - 1) hooks are great because they supercharge composability (which is the absolute coolest blockchain feature) 2) it's high time everyone, not just ux maxis, says it out loud: no user wants to read the code (or ask their llm to read the code). we all want someone to take care of us. so yes routers, apps, social consensus, etc should be preventing malicious outcomes. that's their value add as businesses and that's worth paying fees 3) it's not cool to say "just because some hooks are bad, doesn't mean hooks are bad in general" and brush it off as not a problem. 80% is high enough number to accept it's a problem. just because some people are criminals, it doesn't make all people bad. if 80% of people in the society are criminals, that's not the best society, right? 4) games are playable in environments where the participants allow it, or at least tolerate it. we are all part of this environment - lesson in there
