but if a block was half full miners get zero fees on that empty space. With sub 1s/vb it's much likely to get full blocks even if the total fees are less in total.

I believe `1 sat / vbyte` is an arbitrary/coincidental price level, and doesn't have fundamental significance. The fundamental signifciance derives from comparing total fees with the subsidy (block reward)

If we consdier the new minium that is 0,10 and the average low transactions around 0,18s/vb it's still 80% more expensive than the minimum, a very good sign. Before you start asking, no I am not jew.

I was observing my mempool those days and it's very cool how we can measure with much more precision now the use of the timechain. For example now it's around 0,17s/vb and the minimum is 0,10 when it gets more expensive those days it tops 4s/vb but the average remains around 0,7s/vb. Then I wonder if there's much more monetary use now because there's no block half empty now like there was a lot before sub 1s/vb.
