Four documents, the same five questions.

No throughput league table and no yield. The cells are what this library is willing to say about the text.

QuestionFee market change for ETH 1.0 chain
What the text proposesReplace a first-price auction for inclusion with a protocol-quoted base fee that moves with demand, plus a tip to the producer. The base fee is burned. The EIP is a fee-market rule, not a promise that fees will be low.
Who may writeVitalik Buterin, Eric Conner, Rick Dudley, Matthew Slipper, Ian Norden and Abdelhamid Bakhta
What is settledEach block has a base fee. Paying it is required. It is destroyed, not paid to the producer.
Load-bearing assumptionA burned base fee is not a dividend and not a yield. It is a change in the supply rule.
What this library says afterwardsTips and off-protocol payments can still buy order. The EIP does not end MEV.
