Bitcoin is more akin to gold and silver than a stock or an investment vehicle.
The fact we can use it to transact with is what's groundbreaking; not its dollar-denominated value.
If I saw a malicious soft fork emerge with thousands of nodes being run in a non-astroturfed capacity I'd be championing a URSF movement *immediately*.
I wouldn't be sitting around mocking it and pretending it'd just fail.
The fact that this hasn't happened with BIP-110 is because it's a good idea and the opposition doesn't have any cause to unite people around - all it does it reduce arbitrary data in Bitcoin which simply makes Bitcoin work better as money.

All the concerning scenarios are (unsurprisingly) where there are two sets of consensus rules.
