      How is SegWit2MB "bikeshedding?" That term refers to giving weight to trivial issues. We are here talking about the central issue.

      There should be a term for giving undue weight -- indeed, obsessing -- over seemingly simple things that you don't actually understand.

          SegWit has many security & tps benefits but big security flaw by increasing bandwidth reqrmnts. 2MB trad is flaw++ w/o any security benefit.

          There is an option on the table. It's SegWit. Only question is how to get it activated. BIP 148 is promising.

          The alternative to SegWit with 2MB is not your (excellent) proposal of SegWit, it is the current immobility. We need other options.
