The problem lies on getting a 75% consensus from the miners
75% among just miners is way too low a threshold, you need strong economic support as well which is unlikely to happen at this point(SegWit is really the only proposal at this time with a decent level of support from the economy), and even then you probably want 90% or higher miner support in addition to a very long lead time(6-12 months) for any HF.
