edit; for those who dont have time to visit, the user is calling for a developer black list.

Lol!

This is the great thing about keeping the blocksize small: when you get tired of this Peter Todd guy blattering endlessly about fidelity bonded distributed hash table fraud proofs or whatever the fuck he's smoking with his art school buddies, you can put him on ignore and never deal with him and his complex payment systems again. Just tell whomever you want to pay that you're going to use some other solution. On the other hand, with the One True All Encompassing Blockchain I simply have to use the reference client with Mike's (quite good) LevelDB database patches for every payment I make.

You have a choice.
That seems disingenuous.  What do small blocks do to prevent coin blacklists from being enforced by governments?
