To which part & why?

There’s no reason for changing the base chain and making storage cost higher for node runners. Put bells and whistles on L2. Or try your luck with a hard fork
Node costs are on par with what they cost 10 years ago.
That’s not really an option.
We are literally at the same point we were at during the 1st blocksize war.
It wasn’t enuff.
And it’s pretty evident L2 options are not the solutions we thought they were going to be.
Decentralization is negatively correlated to block size. So what amount of decentralization are you willing to give up on L1 because of your issues with a few years of L2 development? Wait 5 years and see how you feel then about L2
L2 does not fix L1 issues & that’s apparent at this point.
It's not just storage costs. You price out node runners on commodity hardware because they wont have the bandwidth to propogate blocks or compute to validate them in a timely manner. It pushes more and more responsibility and power to centralized players.
