I’m not sure these approaches help. It’s like trying to plug a dyke with your fingers. Eventually the water comes in. Any efforts can merely delay the inevitable and risk negative effects like the inscriptions spam. 

Fees are going to increase. Trying to delay the reckoning so that we can buy coffee on L1 for a short time longer seems pointless to me. Why not recognize the inevitable and build for that future instead? 

 Because human nature is that they just can't leave well enough alone.  Have to monkey with it.  Have to mess it up.  Impossible to just sit quietly and watch.  Everyone wants to be a hero.

But thank you for articulating clearly the silliness of their argument.  A couple more cups of coffee on L1 indeed...
