nor his comments that the block size limit was only a temporary measure.
Satoshi never said that block size limit was temporary measure.
He only said that it can be increased when needed, thats exactly position of core devs and me personally (note he never said it should be removed).
Actually Satoshi seemed to be very much against block size bloat and did not even want namecoin on top of bitcoin.
Core developers are more inline with "Satoshi's vision" then Gavin, who wants to get rid of block limit altogether.
Not that I think its a valid argument, but I hate how Hearn and big-blockers try to hijack Satoshi and claim to speak for him.
"When it is needed" - there is always catch, isnt it? Some might argue it will never be needed as fee market and decentralization is preffered. Do you realy want handfull of Core developers have the ultimate power to decide when it is needed, which is not purely technical question but much more economical one, no mater what consequences to whole 6-7 Billion Bitcoin economy decision of handfull Core developers might become?
