https://bitnodes.21.co/nodes/So some fucker has decided to get tons of Bitcoin ABC nodes to attack Bitcoin Cash. The sybil attack is successful, nodes are crashing, getting banned, etc.

And as exponential adoption happens, only corporations could run the nodes.
These corporations could agree on doing something bad easily, and you are fucked because your dumb ass gave full control to them.
On the other hand with the original bitcoin, thanks to a conservative blocksize, you could be safe because you could fall back to the people's network running their nodes in a sovereign independent way and not 1 actor controlling 3000 nodes as we are seeing.
It does not take rocket science to see the game theory involved in the massive big blocks model that Craig Wright and co want Bitcoin to end up looking like.
