I recall this same thing happened in 2017, so it appears to be a recurring issue. What about people with only small portions of bitcoin, that end up being stuck, because transaction fee exceeds total value?

Well, there are some people here who had this issue before who are stuck on sending BTC to other wallets or exchanges due to the fee exceeding the total amount of BTC.
What they can only do is wait for the network to become less congested and fees drop suggested by mempool.space there is nothing we can do about this issue.

However, if you still insist on making a transaction while the network is congested you can try to make a transaction with low fees and accelerate it using Viabtc accelerator just make sure that transaction doesn't exceed the 0.5 KB size so that you can submit it to the free accelerator.

I'd argue that the blockchain is not exactly congested, but rather, it is constrained. We should be able to do better than to tell people not to use Bitcoin when others are using Bitcoin too, moving money is the whole point of the network.

I have used ViaBTC in the past, but honestly, it's just a work-around...the core issue remains unaddressed.
