In other words: 2MB maxblocksize or not, segwit now or later -- in any case, the majority of the Bitcoin economy seems to be against artificial transaction scarcity.

Source? Hopefully you aren't basing this off of an unscientific Toomin like poll with small sample sizes and no controls of sample data.
I would also like to analyze the questions posed in the poll as that can greatly effect the responses.

I.E...  

1) Do you want to increase the block size for bitcoin to have very small fees for everyday tx's?

vs

2) Do you want the bitcoin chain to remain efficient and lean with a decentralized p2p payment layer that keeps tx's small for everyday purchases?

Users would likely say yes to both the above even when they are very different plans.

What percentage of the mining pool is represented by "Haobtc, OKCoin, Bitmain, Bither, LIGHTNINGASIC" ?
