+> I'm confused about the problem we're trying to solve.

+

+I was in brmlab and wanted to pay 1 BTC for a Club Mate. They had on the wall a picture of their QR code and a bitcoin address. I don't own a mobile phone so the QR code is

+useless. Then I remembered FirstBits, went to my terminal and typed

+1brmlab. I got their bitcoin address from the website and copied that,

+then opened my terminal and pasted that in to send 1 BTC.

+

+And

+these proposals for Namecoin, would make bitcoin implementations

+dependent on unproven technology. HTTPS/DNSSEC have been around a long

+time and are responsible for many mission critical systems. There's a

+lot of momentum behind those projects. Namecoin by contrast, could die

+tomorrow. And it isn't a big deal that they're centralised. This is a

+convenience for end users and does not affect the core system much.

+

+tl;dr: usability
