I swear I'm talking to smart people who keep insisting that Ethereum needs to fix "the fee problem". They realize that fees are better on Arbitrum and Optimism, and wonder why Ethereum isn't seeing any of these improvements.
I swear they're smart, but they haven't gotten the crypto-philosophy-indoctrination we've been giving ourselves. They perceive Optimism and Arbitrum as maybe competitors to Ethereum, but certainly not as part of the plan. I'm sure the lack of unified branding/naming is one problem.
