Interesting read. Did not know all the points...
Then it is time to stop acting like you do.

The only have done so in the past because it was the default setting in the client. I believe it was at 750kB.
The default setting in the client is still 750kB (IIRC), ergo you're wrong.

There is still the option to not use Segwit and use, or wait to use, a client that supports bigger blocks.
Which effectively does nothing. If you use Segwit then you are contributing to the more efficient use of transaction space (i.e. the effective block size will be higher). The users decide whether the added space is going to be e.g. 100kB or 500kB.

Yea but the blocks are not full anymore, or atleast they are back to previous weeks levels, so everything is normal again, so technically this thread is pointless now.
I would not be surprised if another attack occurred. However, the recommended fee is still higher than usual.
