Mostly agree on all points. Just a few considerations:

If there is more usage from pools then the prices will go up. So you will need to delegate more per user to the pool than you might expect from average usage. The more apps/games do this the more prices will go up.

I understand the concern, but having more users or more interactions should be a greater benefit for the chain. I mean it can be an healthy thing if the cost goes up because there are so many users that want to interact on the chain.

No question, as I said, the pool model is more powerful and useful, but the utility gap between no RC delegations at all and simple ones is much, much bigger than between simple ones and pools IMO.

I agree on this, but we waited 6 months for the HF and it's good to have some solid improvements when it take so long for a new release. From my understanding most of the development is already done and hopefully we'll be able to test it properly :D

Sounds very easily automated to me.

Fair point :)
