Yes it’s totally normal to take a word with no real definition (or at best a definition that shifts depending on what’s needed) and have to “prove” it’s BS.
If I tell you that web4 is all about complete freedom and an end to world hunger and it’s based on cow farts is it up to you to prove that it’s BS? (It’s early days for cow farts, you can’t judge them o what they can do right now)
Is your theory that anything with lots of money shoved into it must be good? If so, can I interest you in some tulips? Or, more recently, a few thousand shipping containers of unsellable 3D TVs?
I think his point is that what you claim to be "here" and "now" is different than what is actually here and now. Just having funding and effort getting put into it does not mean it actually delivers on it's promises. That said I find no reason that cryptocurrencies couldn't deliver given enough time. I just find what they are delivering to be something I rather wish wouldn't exist.
