📝 Original message:There is *no* consensus on using a soft fork to deploy this feature. It
will result in the same problems as all the other soft forks - SPV wallets
will become less reliable during the rollout period. I am against that, as
it's entirely avoidable.
Make it a hard fork and my objection will be dropped.
Until then, as there is no consensus, you need to do one of two things:
1) Drop the "everyone must agree to make changes" idea that people here
like to peddle, and do it loudly, so everyone in the community is correctly
informed
2) Do nothing
