Solid write-up; you covered the important angles without ever getting lost in the weeds. You touched on a few things that rarely get discussed but make a real difference in practice. I expanded on a couple of these points in my own write-up over at https://amt-games.com/news/uncx_still_has_a_market_visibility_signal__tvl__revenue_tracking__and_security_metrics_on_major_aggr.html recently.
Reading this felt like a conversation rather than a lecture, which I really value. The balance between the theory and the real, actionable steps is what makes this stick. I've collected a few resources on this same topic at blazeswaper.com for anyone who's curious.
