why are you here? You clearly have something else under centralised control - that isn't bitcoin - that you want - go chase it.
As a comp sci prof, I don need any excuse to take an interest in computer science projects, and debate them in forums and such. But I also consider part of my job duties to advise the taxpayers who pay my salary about computer-related risks and scams; and surely you must agree that "scam" and "risk" command very big fonts in the bitcoin word cloud.
None of what you stated there is bitcoin.
Like any species or company, bitcoin must be able to evolve, or it will become extinct. Bitcoin would still be unquestionably bitcoin with 1 MB size limit or with 8 MB limit, just as it was bitcoin with 32 MB limit until late 2010. That is because bitcoin is not a protocol or an implementation, but is a set of
people cooperating with somewhat compatible goals. Bitcoin will be what those people decide that it is.
Bitcoin is an open source project without any official leadership: not just by Satoshi's choice, but because it
must be that way to be decentralized. Blockstream's pretense to be "the guys who define what bitcoin is" is totally against that idea. When they say "changes must be decided by consensus" they clearly mean "consensus among us Blockstream developers", not among the users, miners, or other independent developers...
