I wouldn't be surprised to see some shocking news about some core devs mysteriously  disappearing.

this has VERY often been the price to sticking to one's principles...

Even if some core members don't want a blocksize larger than 1mb, the core development plan has a Segwit rollout in a couple of months, with an effective 1.7mb (or more - depending the use) capacity.

Right now we are at 0.74mb avg blocksize, so at ~1.7mb we are looking at something like 120% upgrade (or more for certain uses) - despite the fact that current fees are still ridiculously low.

And some are like "ohh something needs to get done"....
