in short, if a Raspberry Pi can handle bitcoin. then a laptop from 2005 can handle 2mb+segwit bitcoin because laptops of a decade ago were twice as powerful in every way as a Pi.
infact more recently, if we stop living in the past and live in the current. standard laptops and desktops are even more powerful again.

Isn't that the proposed path for core development? I thought all the current stress resulted from the demands for an immediate 2Mb blocksize with no other improvements.
Path proposed over 5 years ago... pls... 2MB would be a joke to handle.
It can be phased in, like:
if (blocknumber > 115000)
maxblocksize = largerlimit
It can start being in versions way ahead, so by the time it reaches that block number and goes into effect, the older versions that don't have it are already obsolete.
When we're near the cutoff block number, I can put an alert to old versions to make sure they know they have to upgrade.

limit sigops to the max in 1MB blocks... this dispute is about more than that. It's about steering fees for a generation.
