- The proper terminology for a "hard fork" should be a "FULL NODE REFERENDUM" - an open, transparent EXPLICIT process where everyone has the right to vote FOR or AGAINST an upgrade.

- What is to stop the community from running ABC without this commit? Bitcoin = freedom. We as a community decide what code we run.

- "When SegWit was activated, it caused a hard fork, and all the mining nodes and users who did not want to change started calling the original Bitcoin blockchain Bitcoin Cash (BCC)." - Sec. 8.1.2.

- "There is the valid criticism that, in the (IMO unlikely) event of [Segwit activation], without [2MB increase] activation per NYA agreement, that the btc1 node would still activate the 2M hard fork after 144x90 blocks.

- After the 2x hard fork , some miners should mine the 1x chain but spend all the segwit anyone-can-spend outputs as a "joke" , then watch all the old nodes accept the transactions.

- Every full node should be able to verify all transactions for itself back to the genesis block. Post SegWit "soft" fork, only clients complying with SegWit would be able to do this for UTXOs with SegWit histories.

- The SV crowd says that the worst that would happen if we increase to a 128 MB before the software can handle it is that the network would just max out at whatever it can handle. This is wrong.
