I suspect Satoshi lacks the intent to be a villian here.
The creator of the Keurig, a device which produces amazing amounts of waste, talked about the unintended consequences of his invention and how ashamed he is for the damage his invention has done.
The Nobel Prize is named after the guy who invented dynamite so I'm not judging a single inventor for not being able to conjure up the infinite number of ways his invention could be misused.
Nobel created the prize pool to atone for his deficit of imagination (or at least, to improve his posthumous image) upon reading scathing obituaries of himself mistakenly published when his brother died: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_Nobel#Nobel_Prize
If Satoshi does something like this with his cold wallets, or Mr. Keurig does the same with his k-cup loot, then we'll think about it.
He meant for the machines to be used in situations where one-off servings are common, like small offices or for people who rarely have more than a cup.
Though making them unrecyclable is a bit of a question. Obviously it wasn't the intent but it seems a very obvious overlook. I believe (but may be wrong) that the Nespresso, a competitor, has compostable pods.
