Which point is that? That people will be left stranded because it takes a month to download what amounts to a software update? Either your connection is horribly slow, or I'm forced to assume you're just FUDding.

You're joking right? If you think that everyone is in the position to upgrade or is aware of the current situation then we have no reasons to talk about. Here's a small example and I'll leave it at that:

I'm the owner of Lauda Dice, a very good and popular Dice site. Lauda is currently sick and has no idea what's going on in the Bitcoin ecosystem. Hard fork happens before Lauda recovers and leaves his service website broken.

Even deploying soft forks takes time, with hard forks it is much worse.

They will follow the miners and see that 2MB is not only reasonable, it is long overdue.

Not only is it not overdue, it is very irrational.

looks like they're doing some overtime here

People with the delusion of knowledge never seem to stop.

It was just a simple example. Not willing to asses the situation objectively means that you're either irrational or a Classic shill.
