Thanks @jamezz, I think your comparaison between Gridcoin and America very relevant and that establishes a correspondance between whitepaper and Constitution. No matter how is the situation today, the main point is that everyone aggrees to sign it for what it means. It is thus important for Gridcoin to clearly expose its philosophy because it represents a respectable power (legislative through vote, executive through currency, social, ...) and a responsible behaviour is expected from any respectable power.
