But I agree with Davout that say you don't fix something not broken (I would just prefer to fix it when orange light turns on)
Raising the block limit isn't fixing something that's broken. It's just making the Bitcoin network be able to run at its full potential (or at least run at a higher potential than now).
traincarswreck you are really pushing it for an ignore.
it can't scale to additional layers built on top of it
There is absolutely no substance to this claim.
You can find the substance below. The reason why you choose to ignore them is only personal choice I guess because for me it is substance:
Maximum supported users based on transaction frequency.
Assumptions: 1MB block, 821 bytes per txn
Throughput: 2.03 tps, 64,000,000 transactions annually
Total # Transactions per Transaction
direct users user annually Frequency
<8,000 8760 Once an hour
178,000 365 Once a day
500,000 128 A few (2.4) times a week
1,200,000 52 Once a week
2,600,000 24 Twice a month
5,300,000 12 Once a month
16,000,000 4 Once a quarter
64,000,000 1 Once a year
200,000,000 0.3 Less than once every few years
1,000,000,000 0.06 Less than once a decade
As such, the blockchain can never support All The Transactions
