Not sure to get how you are answering the question

then it will just represent an alt-coin having 5% of Bitcoin community,
and it can't affect Bitcoin (the segwit2mb fork).
destroys the whole thing
Because if the nodes don't upgrade and just implement the patch to
adjust the difficulty, what happens? You get a 95% mining power chain
with "no" nodes and a 5% one with "all" the nodes
I really don't get in all those discussions why the nodes are always
disconsidered compared to the miners, ie why they seem to be of zero
importance and are supposed to obey whatever you ask them
And apparently the trend is not going to revert if we look at the
priority features sent in the asicboost thread where motivating and
scaling full nodes is still something you need very powerful glasses to
see coming

Bitcoin has a very slow difficulty re-targeting algorithm. A
fork that has just 95% miner support will initially (for 2016
blocks) be 5% slower (an average block every 10 minutes and 30
seconds). The transaction capacity of the new Bitcoin protocol
is reduced only 5%.
<div>However the chain with 5% if the hashing power not only has
a 20x capacity reduction, but confirms transactions in 20x
more time. So the mempool will grow 400 times. It must be
noted that fees increased 10x from the moment blocks were half
full, to the moment blocks became saturated. I'm sure no
Bitcoin (pre-fork) user will be willing to pay 100x times the
transaction fees to use such a slow and insecure network.</div>
<div><br>

<div>So a 6-block confirmation will take 20 hours in the
