Emulating curve point scalar multiplication with OP_CAT

The essence of the email revolves around an analogy that questions the practicality of imposing limitations on the use of tools, especially in a field as expansive and versatile as programming. The sender compares the scenario to a hypothetical situation in which a handyman is asked to choose only one tool from an array of essential items such as a knife, hammer, screwdriver, or handsaw. This comparison highlights the absurdity of restricting oneself to a single tool when the nature of work often requires a multifaceted approach.

The underlying message suggests that the conversation, while intriguing as an intellectual exercise or a casual debate over drinks, does not translate well into the real-world application of programming. It emphasizes that just as a handyman needs a variety of tools to address different tasks effectively, a programmer benefits from the flexibility of using various programming constructs and technologies (CAT in this context) to solve complex problems. The dialogue serves as a reminder that artificial constraints can hinder creativity and efficiency, especially in a domain characterized by its need for adaptability and innovation.
