Bitcoin was never meant to scale to all humanity, and that is OK.
It's more important to not break it than getting everyone's pet opcode activated on mainnet.
This isn't about pet opcodes sir. CTV is very limited and would be one of the simplest changes ever made to bitcoin. And CTV certainly doesn't scale us to all humanity, it's non recursive. But its a small step in the right direction and hopefully can set a good precedent for future changes if we see a need for them. I hope you actually read the whole post, because I feel I explained why we need at least a bit more scale on top of what we already have.

Right.

Early messaging around BTC said that it would. Not saying it should, but there are years of messaging that were saying otherwise, even before the block size war.
