If we want to scale Bitcoin eventually then we should just keep Segwit where it is IMO. Doesn't Segwit make batched transactions + Lightning channel opens... significantly cheaper? If Bitcoin is to be better adopted in the future... the extra blockspace/scaling (without changing anything currently) would be really helpful...

My point is that if people are concerned about spam/data graffiti then by raising fees they get less graffiti. Either you increase demand for blockspace... or decrease throughput

Way cleaner and less controversial than Knots/Bip alternatives being proposed today IMO
