Quotes that support claims

The Bitcoin community continues to debate whether allowing the recovery of lost BTC by hackers using quantum computers would be ethical.
I've started seeing more people weighing in on what is likely the most contentious aspect of how a quantum resistance upgrade should be handled in terms of migrating user funds. Should quantum vulnerable funds be left open to be swept by anyone with a sufficiently powerful quantum computer OR should they be permanently locked?
