What other viable and available technology options are there for a system where the consumer can somewhat freely do what they want with digital assets?

NFTs do nothing to help this.

In that they do nothing to fix it. How do you figure they would work? Or do you expect me to prove a negative? Have you stopped beating your wife yet?

But it does work? And just fundamentally why wouldn't it as a concept?

Gods Unchained, immutable X. NFT is a back-end tech and no one should buy anything just because it is a NFT. The whole idea is to add to the value proposition for the customer/end user

No, it does not work. It's a URL that's attached to a blockchain. That's it. The URL can disappear, or you can create a parallel blockchain with the same URL given to someone else.

Have you stopped beating your wife yet?
