Has it ever crossed your mind that there is much less activity in both Dogecoin and Litecoin?

Nope, I looked at the graph and saw how for two days of high fees Litecoin outperformed Bitcoin by 200 and 400 thousand per day.

Again you're making the same mistake, by saying that if a shitcoins doesn't have the needed popularity for 10MB capacity Bitcoin should either.
It's much like saying the USA doesn't need highways because the Vatican doesn't have either! Or like it's perfectly normal to cram a Walmart ina 100 sqm shop because the previous MomnPop grocery on that lot wasn't getting more than two customers per hour.

What's your opinion about the blockchain trilemma? Is it BS?

Yes, bs, because things have changed in the last 10 years.
If internet speed would be the same all over the glove with half of it not going above 10Mbit per second it would cost you $100
 for that 10Mbit connection yeah, if a black Friday deal would involve a 500GB HDD for 70$ yeah, it would be a trilema.
Now it's exactly bullshit!

And the most ridiculous thing is that we anchor ourselves in this stupid node thing for the sake of decentralization when half of the world won't be able to even power on a nowadays miner as 5300W over 380~415V would blow the fuse and burn your house in most countries.
But yeah, the 4TB drive is the problem.
