I'm against only increasing block efficiency, SegWit, here is my argument:
There is always a compromise when making something too efficient...
For example .mp3 has lower quality... "too efficient."
.flac has "same quality", but... it has a limit, the same limit as .rar at maximum setting.
Is SegWit lossless? If Yes, it has a limit, is that limit enough? Don't think so. Like internet speed vs. file size.
If SegWit is Not lossless... security is doomed.
Let's talk about electronics, and how they solved that problem.
different methods increase efficiency, but compromise...
Class-A amplifiers waste 50% of the energy in heat... and heat & power consumption becomes a limit in maximum possible output power, usually considered best sounding amplifiers because the amplifier is always ready, to deliver all the power, so there is no distortions.
Class-AB amplifiers, "the most common type in the 70's, 80's & 90's" they increase efficiency, wasting less heat/energy, but introduces crossover distortion at point 0 if not well designed, more complex to design, more expensive but allows more power, usually less than 2000w RMS are Class-AB.
Class-H amplifiers adds Voltage shifts like an automatic gearbox of a car, usually has 2-gears, maximum 3, increasing efficiency beyond Class-AB but also increase price, complexity, more size & weight, but allows to have even more power, usually all amplifiers beyond 2000watts are Class-H.
PWM Class-D amplifiers, very efficient, much more than Class-H, but sacrifice sound quality, they limit sound quality, like .mp3 but allows to be very light weight, very power efficient, very heat efficient, the result is massive power in a very small size, but the sound quality suffers.
The answer to that problem, was making an Envelope Follower Power Supply, much more complex, much more expensive.
Like Yamaha EEEengine Technology or some LabGruppen amplifiers.
With this technology the power amplifier power supply voltage changes, like Class-H but much more complex, it follows exactly the input load of the signal. Basically it's 2 amplifiers in one.
Becoming as efficient as Class-D, with the sound quality of Class-H, if well designed.

Increasing & Decreasing Block Size, Following the need of the network, could be like EEEengine.
Increasing Block efficiency more data with same size, would be Class-D or .mp3
If there is not a unanimous decision, BitCoin will split, and price will split also. LOL. Jajajajaja

Comment if you agree.
Great stuff. Yes. It just shows there is no IDEAL in our real world projection. We ve always to agree on compromises to get along 'best'.
So there is no ideal bs limit, decentralisation, security, adoption, feature list, road map,.....
If you let the market find out by max freedom, we have a good chance to get closest by anti fragility.
