Except none of that is truly feasible, which is why it wouldn’t matter even if CSW wins.
It’s like saying the state is going to write new rules for chess and produce a bunch of board games with the new instructions in the box.
No one is going to be forced to give a shit about the new instructions.
You can’t do what CSW wants to do without hard forking bitcoin. That’s why it’s vital for as many people to run nodes as possible. We’re the keepers of the original ledger. We don’t have to play by the fake rules.
Regarding miners, the worst case is the US government spends an insane amount of money to DOS the blockchain until they can’t sustain that anymore, or until they realize they could be making money via transaction fees instead. It’s a losing battle to mine empty blocks or coerce miners.
