And support by the original developers of Bitcoin, for scaling by blocksize and exponential growth of computing, bandwidth, and storage.

Bitcoin Cash added new utility that SegWit lacked: 8 MB blocks, higher capacity, lower on-chain fees. That new utility is new value for Bitcoin holders.
Another fork will add ZKP privacy, new utility and new value.

Bitcoin can fork to change it's Difficulty Adjustment Algorithm.

Bitcoin can change it's divisibility any time.

That long term stability may be impossible with a central bank.

If mining is too difficult,the difficulty drops, until a single PC is finding every block on schedule. I'll mine, so that won't happen.

Sure thing. BCH scales as Bitcoin was supposed to. It is supported by the original Bitcoin developers. It's electronic cash, directly peer to peer, not hub and spoke like Lightning. Bitcoin is now BCH.

More know BCH is Bitcoin every day.

Because Bitcoin used to work, and now it doesn't. Bitcoin Cash scales appropriately.

0 fee txns don't cause high fees. They are dropped from the mempool as needed.

Fees are skyrocketing in Satoshi: what used to be 1 sat/Byte is now 1000 sat/Byte.

Median fee is a good metric, it avoids the over-paying txns and the miner-accelerated txns.

How does litening work if it takes a transaction to open and a transaction to close, and the median fees are increasing with time?

Bitcoin Cash is closer to the original Bitcoin implementation in code, philosophy, and community. Same thing that worked since 2009, until the blocks ran out of space.

It's all hinged on SHA-256 and RIPEMD-160 being good cryptographic hashes, and ECC being a good digital signature. Crazy town.

The revolution isn't in building niche complications.
Progress looks like tearing things down. Replacement with automatons. Direct transactions.

This form of proof of work, SHA-256, has a scramble shuffle of XORs that quantum computers aren't applicable to.
