> Ethereum is trying to switch mid-flight (yikes) but others like Cardano have incorporated it foundationally.
Why yikes? If its a legacy transition, with a flight plan and testing, then it should be fine.

Second, the technical complexity involved seems challenging. I'm not a dev, and I'm not saying it's impossible, but making substantial core changes on a live, decentralized system running all sort of layer two infrastructure seems really dicey.
This is really the beauty of ethash being asic resistant and gpu friendly. I have so much computational power built up, that someone will always be available to buy it. It isn't e-waste. We already run on older generation GPU's because they are higher ROI, which proves that they have useful life, even as they age.
