Agreed. When I first started on nostr I felt like he's someone important to follow until my friend pointed out that bitcoin or nostr doesn't have a someone we need to follow. The truth, the concepts are all out there for you to learn & know for yourself. @jack has a tendency to have idols himself. He used to idolize elon when he was ceo of twitter.
Main criticism of the bitcoin symbol denoting what we commonly refer to as sats, would be this. The thing the most precoiners know about bitcoin is 21M units, if nothing else. Suddenly why is there more? You can explain that nothing changed just a naming convention, or you can explain there are 100M sats in a bitcoin like there are 100 pennies in a dollar. And I mean I always liked the @ + s symbol. The penny dollar analogy really makes it really easy to grasp. Replace dollar and pennies with any other currency and its sub units.
