Per-transactions costs matter a lot, you can’t just hand wave that away if you’re hoping to actually persuade anyone.
As far as scaling Bitcoin goes: prove it. It’s been a decade and it still does 4tps.

Sure. The Lightning Network already exists, is working and in use, and can in principle do essentially unlimited TPS.
Bitcoin doesn't need to scale to millions of TPS to be successful (since payments and microtransactions aren't its only use case), but it so happens that it can do that through second layer technologies.
Again, that’s not an argument for Bitcoin, just so we’re clear. This is an argument for visa instead.
