Yeah, but people are just gonna leave your pool if you try to attack the network or miss blocks. (And good luck attacking the network where even the largest 2 entities Binance and Coinbase together only have about12% of block production (stake)).
Like... ye, it's not happening.
And why would you attack a network (if you could) where your value is stored. It's a suicide.
If you did have so much stake, it might be smarter to play by the rules.
