Very reasonable question that even Satoshi thought would work
However we already know blockchains don't scale, doesn't matter if it's 4mb or 32mb or a GB
Increasing block size is basically just kicking the can down the road, eventually we need layer 2 scaling solutions
So keep the blocks small to make node running as cheap and simple as possible and focus all scaling ideation on L2
My two sats
Stupid question (especially to miners) but will/should the block size ever increase?
Seems like it should be on a set schedule like the halving, considering Moore’s Law but way less frequent.
