 Respectfully, how did you not think of this? This was the entire thesis and importance behind the block size war! 
 Yes but not expressed in the way @LynAlden expressed it—ie, that node requirements increase more slowly than advances in computer processing, storage & bandwidth. The big blockers didn’t express it in those specific terms during the block size war either—they expressed it in terms of network scalability/transaction throughput. I get your point though—the topics are related, but I hadn’t thought of it in the way that Lyn expressed it here. Thanks! 
 Can’t wait to be running my node off a tablet! 💪
