I'm more optimistic than you that there will be some sort of mitigation for quantum that gets adopted
I'm happy to read this and I hope my prediction is totally wrong and laughable one day.
That said, I'm actually more optimistic about things than pessimistic. I compare it to a stubborn person who will not go to the doctor for medical treatment, even though it's needed. Eventually, the pain will be enough to get them into the office for treatment.
There are very smart people in bitcoin who I think will figure this out. To me, it's a case of aligned incentives...they'll realize that we all have a lot to gain with a solution and a lot to lose if bitcoin "goes to zero", and therefore it'll get remedied when we reach that break point.
