Also, the worst case scenario isn't very scary-- worst case is the less-than-50%-of-miners who did the switch find themselves on the short end of a blockchain split, so they lose revenue (and transactions take longer to confirm because the network is working on two different chains).

That would motivate them to either quickly recruit more hashing power or quickly switch back to the old rules.
