And yet bitcoin has proven incredibly resilient to hard forks.

By what metric has Bitcoin been resistant to hard forks? How many forks would there have to be for it not to be deemed resilient?

Resilient is not the same as immune, and it only takes one fork to create an arbitrarily large number of coins.

Sure, but that doesn't mean the majority of the network will switch to using that new fork.
