It is terrible when we need to hope for something to succeed because we see that they are clearly doing something wrong but will do it that way anyway because they are strong-willed. Just take the obvious path everybody is pointing to.

Guy doesn't even know Swift yet, wants to rewrite a Chrome/Firefox alternative using it. That's a great recipe for failure. Alright, I need to find another browser project to be delusional about.
