The 1MB non-witness block size limit is the only thing keeping this from expanding even faster.

We need small merchants to be able to run their own nodes, otherwise the notion of “economic nodes” being a check on mining pool power is a complete LARP.

How do you know this? Why have developers assumed they know what’s right and wrong for Bitcoin? The free market is the best decider of what works for the free market.
