To me it's like the limitations of first game consoles (1kB usable RAM for the NES). Having great games work on it needed quite crazy coding skills and several hacks to use less space.

Ethereum is still in it's infancy today and it does indeed have a very slow processing power and speed. But you can bet on the fact that it will improve exponentially.

Do you remember the first hard drives? 56K Internet speeds? IE6 browser? So many challenges have been overcome during the last decades in tech, why would it stop here?

There is a lot of brillant and very-well funded people working on the subject and they will find solutions to improve the platform. No doubt about it.

I always find it odd that such a tech-craving population as HN readers always seem to miss the bigger picture.
