Exactly, this is not a "big deal" for Bitcoin users or Miners, but for Bitcoin Core Developers this is like a golden ticket. The "Core" Bitcoin implementation, headed by CTO (of BS) Greg Maxwell is currently being overtaken in popularity by the "Unlimited" implementation in mining power. Most of the Bitcoin community (by hashing power) support larger sized blocks and on chain scaling. Greg's BS company is trying to sell a solution called "off-chain scaling" which is only necessary if the block size is not increased.

One of the largest chip manufactures in the Bitcoin space supports Bitcoin growing on its own and not depending on a 2nd layer support system that is known as "SegWit". This is why Greg and his company are spending untold sums (like hiring Twitter hype man Samson Mow recently) pushing SegWit Code (which is copyrighted by BS) onto bitcoin, by trying to destory the competitioin with bull shit like saying there is a remote access bug, or some miners are "cheating" by optimizing their chips...

Bottom Line. ALL of the superficial infighting you see in the Bitcoin space right now is over scaling on chain as inventor Satoshi Nakamoto intended or using a patented second layer developed by BlockStream, Greg Maxwell's company. Most devs in the know, of course, support Bitcoin scaling on its own, but Blockstream is well funded and laser focused on getting their patent code into the Bitcoin codebase and any cost necessary.
