I'm honestly not sure how much more write-up you'd like but I'd say there was enough of it for people to make an informed decision.
i reviewed all 3 links you referenced but none of them had a big warning that someone could hog up an entire 4MB block with a single transaction or that people could use the witness field to store pictures and audio and video clips. was that supposed to just be understood and assumed that everyone knew those things could happen and was ok with it without even mentioning it at all? i don't think people are that smart, in general. but the developers should be. no question about that...

Be mindful of those who are trying to re-write history to further their own sordid agendas.  Some people are still just bitter that they lost and will make up just about any lie to try and gain support for their ridiculous views.  The rest of us, however, would very much like to move on now, rather than re-treading fruitless ground for what feels like the thousandth time.  
i get that. i just wish when something like segwit gets proposed that they be honest and detail all the possible use cases controversial or not so people can understand what might happen. i guess they missed the boat on this one just a tiny bit. but if that's what they intended then so be it. if they realized monkeys could be in bitcoin blocks then ok. but they should have put some pictures of monkeys on the segwit upgrade guide to warn people.  Shocked
