so... the "social problem" is a (perhaps manufactured) crisis? for example, nobody here can gauge the likelihood of QC in the next 10 yrs. how is anybody deficient in information supposed to decide if they support a technical solution to a problem that may not exist? so your slippery slope is an issue becoming precedent for making *technical changes* in response to threats we cant actually measure.

No one is advocating freezing QC-vulnerable spend paths any time soon. And if no CRQC ever appears, then no such freezing should ever occur! The question is only what to do if a CRQC is clearly going to exist within a relatively short time period - do you freeze and let people with seed phrases get their money, or do you let the CRQC operator steal it all?
