"Success" is not a sufficiently precise term in this context.

There is a large contingent of people for whom the definition of
Bitcoin "success" means serving as a stable backend which can meet the
needs of their non-Bitcoin platform - and nothing more.

To be extremely specific: should Bitcoin development intenionally
limit the network's capabilities to leave room for other projects, or
should Bitcoin attempt to be the best system possible and let the
other projects try to keep up as best they can?
