Assuming we adopt bip102, eventually you will be able to say exactly the same about 2 MB. When does this "let's not change the economics" finishes (if ever)?
The question is answered in the original email.
In the short term, the risk of a Fee Event and lack of solid post-Fee-Event economic plan implies "short term bump" reduces those risks.
It is also true - as noted in [1], a bump does create the danger of long term moral hazard.
This is why a bump should be accompanied with at least a weak public commitment to flexcap or a similar long term proposal, as the original email recommended. Communicate clearly the conditions for future change, then iterate as needs and feedback indicate.
