 On one extreme of the curve, if blocks are too big, fee revenue tends =
towards 0 as there is no competition for block space.

This isn=E2=80=99t necessarily true. Every miner has its own mining =
policy. If they choose to delay including transactions proportional to =
their fee + first seen, then you create a time based fee market. Want =
quick confirmation? Pay a high fee. Don=E2=80=99t care that much? Pay a =
low fee (and anywhere in between). This market would work just fine even =
if block capacity was unbounded.
