Concerns?

I have never heard of "develop-by-concerns"? Is that similar to=20
fire fighting management?
To that I have this reply;

Your question makes sure that the proper answers don't fit.
And that may be why you are getting frustrated because I've given a lot=
 of=20
reasons why a blocksize increase is needed soon, and none of them show =
up=20
in your list...

And various others; I'm not going to bother pasting URLs, you probably =
have=20
them already.

Point is, Bitcoin is a growing network, with a growing amount of transa=
ctions=20
and we KNOW we will get into problems when the block consistently get f=
ull.=20
How do we know? Because of the old guys in this list having the experie=
nce=20
that this always happens, because anyone in the IT business can tell yo=
u the=20
same.

We have started LN to cope with this growth, but this won't be enough s=
ince it=20
just won't handle all usecases and thus the on-chain growth will contin=
ue. For=20
instance remittances and cross-border purchases.
We need both LN as well as bigger blocks.
