Neither in favor, nor against.

Bigger blocks pros:
- Less congestion.

Bigger blocks cons:
- More time required for verification (right as well as storage requirement).
- Mining becomes less competitive.

I agree, though, that even lightning is getting expensive to work with 4 MB block size limit (and there isn't a lot of demand for lightning yet).
