The main difference is that my proposal does not introduce different
"tiers" of blocks, and does not require uses to move coins to manually
move coins between these tiers.
Instead, my proposal uses a single flat block format that is essentially
the same as the current block format; only bigger.
The main point is that such a change does not require a hardfork with
global consensus, as is commonly assumed, but rather can be deployed
like a softfork using the method described in my original post.
