The network destruction is convincing situation, am I right
If we would have four years long network difficulty regression - then it's emergency, and new code handling such danger - should delay halving to the next halving, until difficulty will recover
if there is no such emergency situation - there is no trigger, and old and new code would work together like a charm = so there is no hard fork at all
beautiful solution, imo :)
Some recent mining difficulty worth considering.
