Bert,
I just found this image on Twitter and it made me remember this trend
where you tried to argue in favor of the blockchain in front of naysayers.

Besides, it doesn't confuse anything. It plainly states "if you don't
build a crypto-currency, then don't use a blockchain, and if you do,
then please stop".
Summed up, it means something as "never use a blockchain", but it is
simply a humorous picture.
My reply was also meant to be humorous, but sometimes I am the only
person who laughs at my jokes, but I don't mind.
Strictly spoken, you are right, it does not confuse anything, but it
states that the only useful thing you can do with blockchain is creating
cryptocurrency (which you should not do, it doesn't explain why)
But still, it is what many people know about blockchain: the purpose of
blockchain is creating crypto-currency. That is, as you also know, not
true, there are as many purposes as your imagination goes. Not all good,
or all bad, but some deserve a closer look at.
Have a good evening
Bert
