Having seen so many projects, very few have truly come back from the brink of death. Some builders have achieved this — and that alone is worth paying attention to. But what’s even more important? We need to change a perception: when builders leave after vesting, it should not be stigmatized as a rug pull, but rather become an industry norm. Releasing creators and encouraging them to move on gracefully after fulfilling their commitments can actually help build a healthier ecosystem. Instead of demanding that someone always sacrifice themselves for the project, it’s better to establish clear expectations — allowing builders to leave with dignity is itself a sign of societal progress.

This perspective is brilliant; finally, someone dares to say it. The label "rug" should have been redefined long ago.

Basically, builders should leave when it's time to leave, don't stay here acting in a melodrama.

To be honest, I quite agree with this view. Instead of binding builders tightly, letting people go can actually attract truly reliable creative individuals to join.
