this Terabyte garbage block until the end of time. Should this attack happen over and over again, it would be impossible unprofitable for nodes to continue operations and the entire network would essentially be destroyed just because there was no blocksize limit.
I am not comfortable with the toxic maximalist perspective that people adopt for Bitcoin. While it is already acknowledged by millions of people as "digital gold", their grotesque acts only irritates me. As you stated, they are the invisible barriers in the bright future of Bitcoin.
I also question if we need a "scalable" Bitcoin or not. For me, Bitcoin is valuable not because of its blockchain features but because people attribute value to it for several years.
We have enough scalable projects in cryptosphere. Let Bitcoin be the old but wise guy in the club ✌
