Statement 1:
I don't want blocks larger than 1MB
Statement 2:
I might want transactions larger than 1MB
These are not compatible with each other (not to mention, they're ridiculous, even in their own, but together they're even worse).
I have made neither one of these statements. Now you're just an outright liar and manipulator (say hi to Veritas for me).

Ad hominem nonsense due to losing ground.
You're only showing that talking with you is a massive waste of anyone's time.
You're the one wasting time with wrongful information trying to mislead people into supporting something that is both inherently controversial and dangerous.
Still, in practice even a cheap 500GB drive would last for at least half a year, and most likely longer because it's unlikely blocks of 20MB would be filled every time at least for the next few years.
Until somebody "turns on" the spam again, and suddenly everyone is stuck with massive bloat.
And xthin blocks would solve that issue too, but Core doesn't support xthin (of course, because core doesn't support improvement).
Xthin is half-baked level improvement, just like pretty much any other BU development has been.
10 minutes should be enough for the slower nodes to keep up with plenty of headroom.
No, that's not even nearly enough time, especially not without Segwit.
