 Very well thought out response. Like the contrast of custody in fiat vs Bitcoin. I'd rather be able to custody most of my money myself and increase trust for the convenience of transacting in smaller amounts than the other way around. @DarthCoin really has the concept of layers in a bitcoin world down well.

 To be really fair, I’d love to keep pushing the threshold down. Right now, anything less than 250k sats (the future median net worth) is impractical to interact with solely on-chain. 

Some of the stuff being worked on where you could run a full node using Merkel trees or some other form of cryptographic proofs has a lot of potential. I’m not encouraging that we become complacent and stop working on better sovereignty capabilities, I’m just arguing why it’s 
1. Not a huge fundamental issue at the moment
2. Not something we should solve through short sighted changes like blocksize

 Agreed. The "move slow and don't break things" ethos should come before everything else. Fucking up the base chain is non-negotiable. Let solutions work themselves out naturally over time
