No. That is objectively wrong. I find it pretty astounding there are actually this many people not understanding this simple concept so let me make it even more simple for anyone else confused.

Ever saved a file on your computer? You know there is a difference between "Save" and "Save As..."

Hive = "Save As..." with some changes, the different balances are not the only change on Hive. There is also a change to how witness voting works. You had one file, now you have 2 files. A NEW FILE. Get it?

Steem's recent HF = "Save" ie no new file, or a non-contentious HF, or an upgrade. Still ONE FILE.

In the first example of Hive, the original file remains, unchanged. So if you had assets there you still have them. You aren't entitled to anything in the NEW FILE.

In Steem's HF, people had assets and they were STOLEN, there is no NEW FILE, the only file was edited. Something people had, they no longer have.

This is seriously not that difficult to understand people, wtf.
