Your proposal is based on the tacit assumption that increasing the block size is necessary and valuable which is based on the tacitly held assumption that increasing the tps solve a significant problem.

You are correct that I believe that a block size increase is both necessary and valuable, but that is not what my proposal is based upon nor was it something I said anywhere in the proposal.  The proposal is a compromise because the vast majority of Bitcoin users and holders think you are the retarded one, just like you think they are.  Regardless of whether you are right or not, they are going to severely damage the prospects of Bitcoin if you do not compromise.

You should probably know that I used to vehemently support your argument, day in, day out.  Until I spent a month working out the math in great detail and realized that I was arguing for the wrong thing.

These assumptions are not based on any accepted economic theory, they are simply perpetuated by people that don't understand the foundation for reason.

This is the same kind of bullshit mudflinging that needs to stop.  First you make an appeal to ignorance and mischaracterize other people's arguments, and then you insult everyone who disagrees with you.

The people that are in favor of either very slow scaling or none at all are the ones that are most educated and read on related economic theory.  They are the one's quoting peer reviewed papers.

That there is a whole faction of people trying to steer bitcoin in a certain direction does not at all give validity to their argument and there is no reason at all to compromise with such irrational behavior.  The system was clearly designed to resist tyranny of the majority.

Zero proof, sources cited, or any arguments of substance.  Much appeal to authority fallacy, yes.

Core's resistance to hasty scaling and any significant change is simply an extension of Satoshi's designed of a system that cannot be usurped by an ignorant impatient uneducated mob.

And while committing logical fallacies and being a jackass, you claim the higher ground.  Nice.

I hate to break it to you, but you are acting like the garbage that you proclaim to abhor.
