It makes you wonder how a supposedly single coder could think about all these intricacies
Are you thinking about Pieter Wuille or Greg Maxwell here? Cause it's probably not Satoshi. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/BIP_0032

Well, that, but elliptic curves are also used in transaction signing et cetera.

What did the single coder do? I think a mathematician must have invented the use of elliptic curves for cryptographic signing way back.

Sorry about that.
I guess my drive is to have technically minded people to not ascribe too much genius to others that came before them. It can be demoralizing, at least to myself to put them on too high pedestals. Everyone should contribute their part.

Also it's good to remember that every single idea originated inside the brain of a single person (sometimes with redundancy). More of an empowering perspective..
Maybe I'm on the hunt for even better perspectives, to boost creativity. :) Do not create under this nym.
