segwit specifically broke bitmain's covert ASICboost scheme. is there a similar parallel here? i don't think so.

i think segwit established that BIP9 is an inferior activation method. miners should be able to accelerate activation but not block it. a BIP8-style flag day activation---done on a reasonably long time frame vs BIP148---seems appropriate.

i do hope we can avoid another recklessly hasty fork like BIP148.
