When I read article's like these, it makes me extremely comforted to know that I have very little to do with big picture decisions regarding Bitcoin.
Balancing Bitcoins ability to not be tampered with, along side the need for flexibility seems daunting, and I defiantly know enough to know I'm not the guy for that particular job.

There might come a time where we need to make a decision. Taking a side of a fork.
You're right as in there's so much to take in just to feel confident enough to have an opinion. I think we just need to keep learning, listen to different opinions on the matter and back whichever argument is the strongest.

Yea, I'm doing my best to learn. I thought it had a pretty good grasp on bitcoin until I joined SN. I realize that I have quite a ways to go. Luckily, I do enjoy learning, so I'll just keep reading articles like these, and when I have questions, I just do a search, or ask someone.

The nice thing about forks is that you start with both options and can wait as long as you want to see how it plays out before committing to one or the other, or just keep both indefinitely.

Yes.
You might lean one way or another, but it really takes balls to go 100% in one direction. Not even Roger Ver could do that.
If you are inclined towards a particular side you can start slow. Swap 5-10% of your stack to start with.
