Warning: the codebases Electron Cash and Electrum are significantly different

To clarify, I'm not saying there are backdoors in the new "Electron Cash" code, but to me, a programmer with 15+ years of experience, it's not immediately obvious there aren't any. The differences are significant, even if you look at the Python files alone. To be honest, I expected much more minimal changes.

I compared the Github master branch of Electrum with ElectronCash windows source.

Here's the difference between the files:
