He did leave it up to the dev's to make adjustments and fix bugs when necessary. The protocol has seen adjustments before and btc managed to survive. Remember the hard fork? People thought the sky was falling and satoshi would descend from mount Sinai then too. Don't sweat it. Bigger blocks will be good.
What would Satoshi do?
In regards to the block size and transaction times?
If only he appeared from hiding to give his view.

This is how Satoshi wanted it to be implemented: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.15366

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.

I remember reading his stance on MAX_BLOCK_SIZE a few times, originally I think their was no cap to blocksize, we had to make a change to add the current 1MB limit.

Fabulous!
Another block size thread.
How many do we have now 10-15?
Satoshi wouldn't do anything.
He created it like that for a reason.
