Eh, I tried unfortunately and it's not the same. Especially with video processing, my older Macbook Pro heats up very quickly when using Firefox vs Chrome.

Firefox's history bar is still superior though

I wouldn't say PoS security has to be driven by the rich, but by whoever is staking, which people could be staking small like lets say 1 ETH total. The security is derived simply by the threat of having your staked ETH (however much) slashed away.

The point is it mitigates the on-chain attack surface which is still prevalent on PoW. Off-chain attacks are still possible for all consensus mechanism.

I'd further add on to say PoS has the benefit of being able to eliminate bad actors unilaterally. You can't stop anyone from attacking a PoW chain over and over again. Attacking a PoS chain is much riskier as the attacker's stakes are held on chain and are at the mercy of the community who uses the network.

Yup and accordingly PoS devs have explicitly stated this incentivizes stakers to be spread out, and not only on infrastructure but software, as there are multiple client implementations.

To add on to this, you can still improve the code quality while building on it by adding tests as you go, so you can have some solace and also sanity when testing your own code.
