I do not admit there is a monopoly on violence. Anyone can be violent.
Taxes are okay when they pay for reasonable government services

Right, and that hasn't been the case since in the introduction of the federal reserve bank.

I want to promote my new tool I'm so proud of, and I need taxes to justify its existence
and all the F hours of work wasted on it
I can't honestly say that part because I don't think I wasted those hours

The tool is a good idea. It has a use case. "Loan Shark" is appropriate because it is predatory. Kind of like the guy who designs devices that harm humans or animals. No matter how you justify it. You are all in on the confiscation of earnings of productive people. I'm guessing that you get some of your money from proximity of the money printer.
But if I was you, I would say, "Yeah, I understand that some people hate taxes. I'm just making an arbitrage tool to help public facing businesses who have to keep books in order to prevent the Monopoly of violence from confiscating all of their means of earning a living."
I really like your, "Think about it." comment.
Thinking is not seeing. It's not observation.
If you want to succeed with your tool, don't waste time arguing with people who would not use it.
Acknowledge the detractor's point and move on. Whether I hate taxes or not if this was a vetted tool functioning I would recommend it to a business for Bitcoin use.
Even if I think you are a brainwashed, statist cuckold, I see your desire to help others is sincere and for that I would still praise your effort.

As far as I am concerned I succeeded
I made a thing that does something cool and I am pleased with the result
What more success could I ask for?
you are a...statist
At your service, sir. I do not consider "statist" an insult but a badge of honor
And since you called me a name, I shall call you one in return, thou anarchist
Someday I hope to meet you at a bitcoin conference and I hope we shall hug

Disagree, 14 starts and 1 fork on the repo... do you call it a success? A successful project? Where are the people using it? Maybe not yet. Only time will tell.
You have succeeded doing it and making it works, just for you, but works! That represents just one third of the job. Keep working hard, you still have a lot to do to make it succeed.
Keep building

Yes because I measure success by my own satisfaction. I didn't make it to acquire users. I made it because I thought it would be cool if it existed
That represents just one third of the job
I define the job
you still have a lot to do to make it succeed
I am done with this project and am pleased with the result
Onward to the next thing

Agreed. Congrats.
