A correction seemed warranted. > Block size is not a parameter you can force on upgraded nodes by soft-fork. Isn't this what the Segregated Witness proposal[1] effectively does? The new limit proposed would be 4MB with an expected confirmed transaction throughput increase on the order of 2x. To quote Pieter: "Another way of looking at it, is that we raise the block size to 4 MB for the witness part, but the non-witness has same size."
