We need an increase ASAP, that much is fact. BU, some 2 MB not-segwit compromise from Core. At the moment Bitcoin is bleeding more than it ever has done. Its first mover advantage and network effect depends on its ability to grow, and right now it can't.
People with egos and ivory tower ideals are sabotaging Bitcoin and destroying its practical use.
Maybe Lightning Networks will work and be beautiful but right now Bitcoin is dying and alts are flourishing.
Miners, developers, DO SOMETHING, ANYTHING!
People in need of a high volume of transactions may right now use banks .........

There's no reason why Jihadi Wu or Roger Ver are any better than current banks.
The rest of us will stay with the real bitcoin ie core.
