Basically how I understand this decision process is that:
1. Hackfisher doesn't understand how PTS and AGS were never merged.
2. The community is going to vote their pocketbooks, regardless of what is the right thing to do.
I think that's the gist of it. While BTS gave a healthy and generous airdrop, twice, to the PTS/AGS/DNS/VOTE community there wasn't a buyout.
Most people in the community viewed it as a buyout however and divested in PTS with the expectation their stake in future DACs would come from BTS.
It's my opinion that this is a false assumption and damaging to the community and third party DAC developers looking to do the right thing.
With a liquid PTS, untied to people's investments in other DACS, there will be buying/selling PTS based on the pipeline of upcoming DACs. The market will put a value on the 10% snapshot of the social contract.
Like Godzirra said: This doesn't have to be complicated. What's complicated it is that now everyone wants BTS snapshotted because they feel BTS bought out PTS via airdrop.
Anyway, I'm sounding like a broken record. The value in the airdrop is the community. If the community has decided that a DAC (currently BTS because that's where everyone's money and hope is. Maybe next month it'll be something else) then...eh. It is what it is.
