How you go from this situation to railing about "bullshit coming out of the BU camp" just unveils your ignorance of how things work.
This is just one example of bullshit coming out of the BU camp. There are other examples as well, but there is also no real need to go into detail about other examples.
How about we do, since this is the root of my measure of proportion? From my standpoint, you smeared BU based on a misunderstanding of the situation. Obviously, you have some additional beef with the project that led you to make negative assumptions. Maybe if you aired it, I could better understand your position.
You really do seem to want to go so far down the BU rabbit hole that admins will have no choice but to delete posts leading into this?
I think that I said as much as I need to or want to say about BU, for the time being.. unless maybe if we go to some other thread or to PM. But, yeah I will admit that you might end up changing my mind about some things or that there may be some parts of BU that I do not adequately understand.. Yet, at this point, I stand by my earlier statements as being sufficiently adequate and substantiated to the extent that I feel like substantiating them or researching further into the matter.
Miners already have the power to change blocksize by recompiling the code. All BU does is remove that artificial barrier and make it clear that blocksize is a parameter that the market will decide on, not some cabal of self-anointed developers.
You may be correct.. no harm, no foul.. but my understanding is that there is a reason for blocksize limits, and some of it has to do with bloat and bandwith, etc etc..
My other understanding is that there are some governance issues with BU, as well that attempts to hardfork with pretty low levels of consensus... which would be damaging to bitcoin, if bitcoin could be easily changed in the future.
I am also of the understanding that seg wit is a much better solution for a lot of matters and should be the next step, rather than rushing into BU when there does not really appear to be a need for it, not at the moment.. and seg wit is a better next step (at this time).
