Now, let's see, who is going to benefit from the removal of the block size limit.
1) Businesses. Yes, they are likely sitting on a decent network connection and will be able to process more txs and serve more customers.
Maybe you didn't read that BitPay has sacked most of their staff today basically because "there are hardly any customers" (at least not enough to sustain their current business model).
So we should increase the block size for businesses to serve customers that actually "don't exist"?
This is a "chicken and egg" problem. If you wait for business before building it, they will never come, because they will see there is nothing there. If you build it, you take a risk and they might not come. In which case, you are stuck with what you've built.
In the case of a blocksize increase, you are stuck with a few lines of changed code that will cost almost nothing to deploy. You won't even be stuck with any larger blocks if no business does come, except possibly some spam. Even some spam won't necessarily be bad, because it might force the software to improve, so as to make more efficient in use of storage, bandwidth, and processing resources.
Unfortunately, the bitcoin community seems to have a total lack of leadership at present. From reading many forum posts one might conclude that the bitcoin community is a foolocracy. (The more conspiratorial inclined may chose to describe the situation as the result of an organized campaign by bitcoin's enemies.)
