discrimination is necessary. You cant just say that its its censorship because people don't want to go along with a loosening of a restriction. There is also no indication of the knots side ever wanting to censor monetary transactions. If you think Luke is crazy for such and such reason and how he may do something in future then just say it thoughtfully. Nothing so far has indicated that anyone wants drift away from bitcoins ultimate goal of being the global monetary network.

Why is discrimination necessary? If it was necessary I would presume we need a fork to make this consensus. This is the same type of thing you would have heard from the State if we gave them an option to help design the new system. "We need to have the authority to stop bad TX."
However, here, you're just putting bad TX on a more exploitable and longer-term more costly location, UTXO set. Costly for yourself, as a node operator.
There is no option on the table to make Bitcoin purely monetary, you get that right? That's gone. We already added features, changed consensus.
Thats alright, we just get as close as possible to pure money. You also talk like the big change is coming from knots side when its actually the other side. Keeping something in place doesnt really indicate a thirst for more power.
💯 We don't want to change anything, we want the status quo. That's it.
It's a bug fix. It's not a big change. We have created two different mem-pools. This is a bad outcome and needs a bug fix. It forces developers to hack around and find private and privileged access to the mem-pools they need.
Users will have to go through centralized companies to get this access for themselves, to use these apps. Instead of these apps being decentralized and serving the politics of Bitcoin they will be centralized and serve standard politics.
You've stopped nothing, you've only made things harder for everyone. Present and future node operators and developers and users.
