You can just remove my assertion about the likeliness of the need of sub-satoshis and the main claim still stands. > The currencies I'm familiar with are CHF, USD, EUR and GBP, which all have > roughly similar values.

In any case the "3000 micros will look like expensive" claim is still very relative. >> "People seem to like mBTC" is just an ad populum fallacy: millions of >> flies can actually be wrong.

That's what I said the current adoption by some wallets and services was the only valid argument immediately after dismantling the actual fallacy. Did you missed that last sentence or are you intentionally using a straw man argument? In summary, yes, that's point is valid, I'm not saying it isn't.
