The work that Tamas did re-implementing is probably one of the most valuable
things he ever did.

It would significantly improve the quality of the consensus code if this
community would start treating it as a buggy & poorly defined proof-of-concept
that just happens to actually run, rather than some holy scripture upon which
we must never question (or change)

I'm impressed by the secp256k1 work, and other modularity efforts, but at 
some point main.cpp needs to get untangled, and have some critical review
if bitcoin wants to remain relevant.
