But if there's no solid consensus, isn’t a hardfork likely? Otherwise, we just kick the can down the road.
Delaying congestion doesn’t solve the ultimate blockspace issue. Custodians and exchanges will adapt quickly anyway. Bitcoin needs to keep up with other chains.
Bottom line, Bitcoin lacks a clear route to quantum resistance. All we can do is slow down the impact, but it's still coming.
