This may alienate home-based full nodes during the transition stage, however, due to the increased potential to handle larger user base and therefore higher overall value (market cap) of the network, people who are committed to running a node should still be able to afford it (using other methods: cloud services or dedicated servers)
No.

Ok, I need to give a perspective on this first.

At the heart of creation is a perpetual push-pull engine.
You can easily see it as presented in the choreography below.
It attracts you first (at 1:24), then pushes you out (at 1:29).

That's all it does, except that in the mean time it "raises the bar". Smiley



So, how does that relate to the question at hand?

Well, the weakest (or less motivated) validators are going to be pushed out in the transition stage, while everyone rushes to the next (bar)rier.
That's where we all meet again to see who is running and where to go next.

There doesn't seem to be a good way around that.
Improvements in any areas require hard work and dedication.
That's how evolution works.
