"no good argument"

I just gave their argument: it helps them to perfect the algo

There is nothing inherent about web3, now or ever since the beginning, that says that businesses building in it are not supposed to make their apps as entertaining as possible. Time spent just happens to be the best proxy (not ideal, I get it, but the best we have at scale) for it. 

It's also not like they're anti user feedback. They've listened to plenty of it over time and made changes that made sense to them. They have LISTENED to your feedback, but they've chosen to not implement it. We need some /nuance here. Listening doesn't necessarily mean doing what's suggested. It means you open-mindedly take the input, then PROCESS that input, and decide on an output aka whether to implement or not or maybe modify it and implement it. If you don't allow for this process, you're not respecting their autonomy.

I'll accept that "many others" have requested this but as long as it's a small minority, the tradeoff makes sense.

Too many people on here whine and complain that "Merkle doesn't listen to user feedback" when in reality what they mean is "Merkle (an independent, for-profit, centralized organization) didn't implement my specific demand"

Great, now all those small business owners can finally diversify their portfolios and become amateur crypto traders! Watch out, Wall Street!
