Honestly, about the on-chain "cutting in line" thing, many people criticize it as if they're insulting the line-cutters' manners, but the ones truly affected are often those who think they're waiting in line. You think that clicking confirm means you've bought it; in reality, you're just shouting your intention into a public square. Whoever has a louder voice (pays higher fees, runs faster, or can夹) gets on the bus first.

I'm not sure if this counts as "unfair," since the rules are written there: based on the cost you're willing to pay and the order of priority you can get. But it does make the experience for ordinary users feel very mystical: for the same swap, some slippage feels gentle and considerate, while others are sandwiched into breakfast like a sandwich.

Recently, during the airdrop season, it's even more amusing. The task platform's anti-witchcraft measures are like risk control interviews, with a points system making the grab-the-coin crowd feel like clocking in at work; meanwhile, on the chain side, there's another set of "cut-in-line performance evaluations"—those willing to pay a little more for a bit of certainty always seem to be working more seriously. Anyway, I now see big pools pause first, preferring to go slower, at least to avoid becoming someone else's fuel.
