Hard forks are good. Stop crying. They allow two discrete paths to flourish and see which works best. Too freaking bad if some of your juice gets stuck on the 'bad' chain. On fork day, you've got equal action on both chains. Make good decisions thereafter. No harm, no foul.
Let's do it NOW!!!!
Fork it already.
Do you think the hard fork will go smoothly? I assume your argument is about the XT hard form scenario unless I'm mistaken. But in my opinion it would be better to be cautious and prudent before making major changes in Bitcoin. Look at what happened with Ethereum. What if the same thing will happen again with Bitcoin's hard fork. Then what is supposed to be a champion of cryptocurrencies would now become a failed experiment in consensus. It will be laughable. The core development team should not risk anything that will destroy Bitcoin.
Honestly, who gives a flying fuck about Ethereum? Ethereum has a totally different protocol and shouldn't be compared to what the Bitcoin devs are doing, or proposing they should do, with an upcoming hard fork.
