Re: Namecoin 3.21.90 releases + Must update before block 24'

I'm not sure I understand the reason for one of the changes so I don't know whether to update the version I use. I worry that getting 50% of the network to update is going to be difficult and the end result is namecoin will effectively stop working.

Why the reason to decrease network fees faster? Was the original reason for their existence wrong? If so, why not get rid of them altogether? A bunch of people mined coins and bought domains based on the original rules. Now they're changing. What's to prevent changes further down the line that destabilizes peoples trust in the network?
