A bunch of Chinese fellas who probably couldn't fill the top floor of a bus doesn't say much about what everyone else wants. Pitiful that so few have so much weight.

ok guys put aside all the biased rhetoric and biased defense arguments.. and think real hard
who in late 2015 decided to make the vote pool only.
who bypassed the security of node consensus
who decided that bypassing nodes, which if not bypassed would have ensured a good full node count first to elevate pool orphan risk to then give pools more confidence to change the rules wouldn't hurt their change of winning blocks

pools didnt have the power of vote/veto until someone gave them that power.

this is why a node consensus first, then a pool consensus second would have worked better.

core shot themselves in the foot before they even started walking with segwit
