Question:

Is there enough support in the TBX community to implement such a change to successfully take over 51% of the chain right away at block x?

I don't mine TBX so this doesn't really concern me, but I'm curious.

There is an extremely strong support for this tweak from the "we need our deflation BACK" brigade (this whole tweak is the result of email exchange with some of the more vocal and driven people on that front) and it appears that nobody really minds it since it does not affect fundamental network behavior from current user perspective (nominally, fees are still fees and "miner tipping" isn't used) and miner perspective (without subsidy cuts, no one cares about whether fees proper are blackholed)

So the only problem could be update apathy, but since I intend to bundle it with new and better miner suite and perhaps linux blobs, I expect that to be overcome (especially if the DEFLATION brigade will help out on the public awareness front)
