It's still a miner veto. The only way this works is if the full deployment 
(with UASF fallback) is released in parallel.

BIP8 already does that.

BIP 8 did in fact have broad consensus before some devs decided to ignore the 
community and do their own thing. Why are you trying to rewrite history?

They had 18 months to fix their broken firmware. That's plenty of time.
