You know how the big-block arguments are basically bogus? ... in the end they are appealing to cult of personality (Saint Gavin will save them)
It is not so innocent.

Gavin's 'vision' coincides with banksters narrative we hear every day - yes to bitcoin blockchain, no to bitcoin. For (basically) you don't have to have bitcoins to compete for blockchain inclusion. Unless you think $0.01 worth of bitcoin is considerable hedge against blockchain spam?

You don't pay a penny. You pay a fraction of a bitcoin that was going up exponentially in value. Your coin has less chain-writing utility and so it doesn't appreciate as fast, if at all. 

Don't take my word for it. Look at the five year logarithmic chart.
