You did interpret it wrong... did you not read the whole post or something?
Why isn’t Bread picking a side?
We are picking a side. We side with our users. And even though many of our users strongly disagree with one another about the merits of Chain A or Chain B, it is not our job to tell any of them what to think. Bread is comprised of a group of individuals, any of whom will gladly give you their personal opinion on the matter, but as a company we have to stay true to our two promises: Keep customer funds safe, and give customers a choice.
They are not explicitly supporting ANY chain... by design, SPV wallets will follow whatever turns out to be the main chain... it *could* be S2X, it *could* be Core... Bread, by default, will just use whatever is the longest chain... UNLESS you take the precautions they talk about (tethering the app to a specific node working on a specific chain etc).
Also, their #1 recommendation is: Do Nothing!
The safest course of action is to refrain from making transactions until the fork confusion is resolved. This is our #1 recommendation to users.
They even go as far as to warn about the issues around replay protection...
Not quite sure how you interpreted ANY of that article as "Bread Devs back S2X"
