Thanks for your contribution. The Council has split this into two proposals and provided additional context for the allocation for risk mitigation initiatives. You can read the updated proposals here: Risk Mitigation Initiatives, Treasury Composition.
Regarding #2, the risk mitigation initiatives proposed by the Council will help keep the protocol in line with best practices and the funds requested will be used to engage third party service providers. The Council believes the initial development team is best positioned to vet and engage these service providers given their familiarity with the protocol.
