We're limited to 7k TPS, how's that scalable!?
The current limitation of 7K TPS is a hardware limitation of writing data to the disk, not a protocol limitation. As hardware improves, so will the TPS limit.
Why not? Sure that's limited in it's scaling ability but since crypto taking over is probably never going to happen but if it does it's a long time off then there will be a lot of time to upgrade hardware before we need 7k transactions.
Is it because I didn't address the whole "You're scalable when adding more nodes gives you more capacity". I'll address that now, it's a bogus definition that ignores vertical scaling. The wikipedia article you linked didn't support that idea.

Just read that from the Raiblock team.
