Etc.(@ec265):This is a pretty good summary Years ago we could make changes pretty willy nilly as the ecosystem was so small But the bigger the ecosystem becomes, the slower the changes need to be and the more consideration there needs to be for each set of participants We don’t want to ‘scare away the institutions’, otherwise there will simply be no demand Ethereum demand is about to increase exponentially, and so stability is very important The last thing needed is contentious decisions that have the community divided Let the growth happen, continue to monitor the impact, gather more data We can still be proactive at a later date TL;DR right idea, wrong time
