I have read gavin&#39;s blog posts as well, several times.&#xA;I still don&#39;t see what else can we fear from not increasing the size apart&#xA;from fees maybe rising and making some problems that need to be solved&#xA;rewardless of the size more visible (like a dumb unbounded mempool design).&#xA;&#xA;This discussion is frustrating for everyone. I could also say &#34;This have&#xA;been explained many times&#34; and similar things, but that&#39;s not productive.&#xA;I&#39;m not trying to be obstinate, please, answer what else is to fear or&#xA;admit that all your feas are just potential consequences of rising fees.&#xA;&#xA;With the risk of sounding condescending or aggressive...Really, is not that&#xA;hard to answer questions directly and succinctly. We should all be friends&#xA;with clarity. Only fear, uncertainty and doubt are enemies of clarity. But&#xA;you guys on the &#34;bigger blocks side&#34; don&#39;t want to spread fud, do you?&#xA;Please, prove paranoid people like me wrong on this point, for the good of&#xA;this discussion. I really don&#39;t know how else to ask this without getting a&#xA;link to something I have already read as a response.&#xA;-------------- next part --------------&#xA;An HTML attachment was scrubbed...&#xA;URL: &lt;http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20150811/560a774e/attachment.html&gt;</html></oembed>
