Can you elaborate on why you think that increasing the block size doesn't seem like a solution for scaling?

For the same reason we do not make bigger cars when we want to go to space.

That is not a good comparison to the situation. Cars and outer space have nothing to do with each other at all. Whereas the number of transactions is directly impacted by the available size on the block that they consume.
