It appears blockstream finally sees the light:
"Another idea that has been gathering support is Blockstream CEO and Hashcash inventor Dr. Adam Back's “2-4-8” quick fix, which would incrementally increase to the limit to 8 megabytes in three steps over four years time."
Going to 2mb first is kind of pointless. Might as well fork straight to 8 since it's going there in a couple years anyway.
Just because you FAIL to see the point of going to 2MB first does not imply the rest of us do not.
In fact the opposite conclusion, that there IS a point to first doing a small increase in an abundance of caution, is indicated by the fact Dr. Back's BIP248 (sorry gmax but we're all calling it that) proposal enjoys a plurality if not an outright majority of support.
I agree with we can increase to 2MB first to see the effect. Then we can decide what to do next.
