I feel like the actual argument is taking place on how "not wanting jpegs" would even be accomplished.

Some people want to foolishly patch their nodes with a filter;

Some people want to go back to 1mb blocks;

Others want to recalibrate the witness data discount;

Then there are the free market purists who trust the fee market to be dynamic.

Ps. Hard drive space isn't a concern right now.

What's the argument against the patch?

I agree that the size isn't an issue. I've just bought a 2tb SSD for $100 and that should last a while.

My problem is with the idea that we can't do anything or would be hypocritical to do something.

Ultimately I think jpegs will have to be mostly priced out anyway.

Lots of issues depending how far people want to to take it.

For ex, throttling transactions w Ordinals to delay their inclusion in the mempool.

Seems like this can create a miner incentive dilemma.
