Oh boy another incoming Bitcoin proposal civil war in the comments section. I can't wait until nullc gets here. Why is it so hard to have a non-censored, rational discussion about this topic without it becoming some ridiculous flame war every time? |

Because each side thinks they are acting selflessly in the best interests of Bitcoin with sound technical reasoning, while the other side has sinister ulterior motives. Bitcoin scaling debates (like most political debates) are riddled with assumptions of bad faith.
What really makes it complicated is that, to some extent, both sides are right: there really are people on each side who stand to profit greatly from their proposal winning and thus have their finger on the scale. Of course, each side only notices these people when they belong to the other camp.
