I think the best solution in this situation would be Core to support Segwit2MB.

That's probably the desired goal of this agreement. All the drama queens in this thread were assuming that the miners were going to suddenly fork away without developer support, but if you think about it, that seems pretty unlikely. This whole thing could just be the miners simply saying "come a little closer to our stance and you might have a deal", although admittedly including a pretty strong ultimatum in the process. Plus all the 'Chicken-Little' crybabies can't seem to take solace from the fact that this completely derails even the slightest possibility of 'emergent consensus' happening.

After some consideration, I think my first impression was wrong. In all likelihood, this isn't an escalation, this is a concession from miners. SegWit is happening and BU isn't. The rift in the community just shrank a little (but I fully expect everyone on the forums/reddit/etc to act the opposite and keep going full retard at each other like their lives depended on it).

And if people don't want 2MB straight away, you know what you need to do.

And if ?miners? do not activate SW but rather use the 2MB first ? Could that happen ?
