Thanks for the clarification.
You didn't answer me when I asked, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt as I'm sure you are having the same conversation in a dozen threads at once. You have been otherwise responsive and honest with me on nostr to your credit.
I still currently am against this PR not that many care what a nobody like me says. I get that filtering is impossible but going out of our way to make it easier for people to cram more into a block is different than not filtering.
This strikes me as an arbitrary data first PR, not a monetary TX first thing with data sneaking in. Plenty of shitcoin chains for that.
I'm even pragmatic that block sizes will eventually grow. That is far away when cheap node hardware gets better. A node that can run core, run LN without timing out every TX, has batteries so your drive doesn't corrupt every power outage, and syncs within a week is already out of reach for many Americans never mind people in poorer countries. We are soon into requiring 2tb, how many nodes will just disappear when that happens rather than upgrade?
