I am talking about the compromise increase reached by core devs and miners btw.

There is no need for any compromise.

I agree that from technical perspective there is little point in 1 mb increase. From non technical there are some big benefits I believe.

Maxwell explained why this is not the case.

Not gonna lie though, it makes me sick to see Luke state that this is to appease the industry. Why pander to them?

Indeed. While I'm a bit curious as to what the HF proposal is going to contain, giving in to 'the industry' is definitely the wrong move here.

So they blame the tech, thinking big blocks and maybe a good ol' change of the guard will re-kindle their bankrupt "cheap transactions = mass adoption = profit" business plan.

This is what it is all about. Someone previously said something in the lines of: People willing trade decentralization for a temporary price increase deserve neither and will lose both (It's an adaptation from B.Franklin's quote I believe).
