If a single person does it, that isn't at problem as long as
no one else wants to do it. Then it is "reality".

If a single person does it, and the rest cannot do it except
for forking it and become another "single person doing it",
that's a _huge_ problem and that model is unlikely to be
successful as it would require a brilliant person who can
accomplish wonders with no help from anyone else.
