Very well articulated, and I actually learned a few technical details and other aspects from this whole thread.
Actions (or lack of) speak louder than words though. Code dev team refuses to plug the holes that have allowed more spam via the Inscriptions functionally. They call it "controversial" to do so. Increasing OP_RETURN (and making it deprecated) is very controversial (double standard).
At the moment, I rather take the current state of limited size spam, instead than 100k size spam (and unlimited size spam in the future).
