No, you are right, if this is what the consensus is, then thats what it is.
I'm worried that it seems the impetus is to cut it off before it can be established by the means with which it was originally intended to be reached - by running the software of your choice.
What I see (and understand) is that it seems to be a good thing that BTC community reaches a consensus.
I don't really care about the finality simply because I don't understand it. I don't know why btc classic or anything else should be implemented, and as far as I'm trying I still don't see an obvious solution.
But I'm glad to see the community will back one same solution, and not just go in 3 opposites directions.
I look forward to Lightning Network if it works as we all hope it does. Hopefully it only requires soft forks to implement.
I'd love to run a lightning node and charge a few bit cents for running it to have a small income from my holdings.
