What do we want? To prove to our opponents that our point of view is the only right one? Or to finally scale?

Those that can see that 'the Emperor wears no clothes' can tell you that Core clearly does not want to scale. Otherwise they wouldn't be stalling for years, offering convoluted solutions to simple programs, breaking agreements and refusing to compromise.

This is all entirely in contradiction to actual reality.

Core's Segwit solution is the only genuine proposal that involves changing the scale of the Bitcoin blockchain's resource usage. Every other proposal that advertises itself as "scaling" maintains the scale of resource usage as it exists with the current paradigm, including the (3? 4?) various non-scaling solutions you've endorsed in the past few years jonald.

Interesting how you never shut up about scaling, and yet always (and relentlessly) suggest false scaling proposals.

The charge that Segwit is a "convoluted solution to a simple program" is also pretty dubious; not only is Bitcoin itself a fairly complicated concept already, but Segwit is actually a pretty simple change to the complicated original, i.e. the perfect opposite of what you're saying.

And lastly, I think we can all agree that increasing from 1MB to 4MB is a pretty compromising proposal. I don't want 4MB, and yet I support Segwit. Because I'm willing to compromise.
