My worry here is that we seem to have a large cadre of proponents of this new feature that are not able to articulate answers to reasonable questions. I see a lot of demurring of the nature of "perhaps the devs can come by and explain it better". It makes be think that perhaps these proponents likewise don't understand the details of what is being proposed deeply enough to understand the implications upon the questions being asked.

Maybe because we've encountered segwit only 2 days ago? Maybe it is because Bitcoin is a learning process and these things take more time as people have their personal lives to attend to? I've already said in the thread that I'm also learning on the go. There's nothing wrong with not knowing the answer to a bit more complex questions.

Which is fine. I get that. But 'I really don't quite understand yet how this is going to work, exactly' is kind of hard to square with 'The solution to Scalability'. If one does not understand all the considerations, how is one able to meaningfully advocate it as any kind of solution?
