I've been lurking in the group for a long time, but I still can't help but say: for things like block builders and bundles, retail investors really don't need to research enough to reproduce the code... Just knowing that it's roughly "someone is packaging a bunch of transactions, maybe even front-running," and then you just click confirm on the chain, and it doesn't necessarily happen in the order you see, is enough.
To put it simply, there are two main impacts on us: one is not to always think about front-running or taking shortcuts; the more impatient you are, the easier it is to get slippage and traps educated; two is not to rush when you see a quote jump, especially recently when cross-chain bridges have issues and oracles also show anomalies, the community's saying "wait for confirmation" is actually quite correct. My approach is very simple: large amounts are split into batches, prefer to be slower, disable multi-signature/permissions if possible, and minimize authorizations if possible. That's how I start.
