The sensible policy is that relay should never be more restrictive than what is reliably getting mined in practice.

Anything more restrictive has the collateral harm of increasing centralization pressure by seriously hurting block propagation performance and by driving transactions to direct miner submission.

So because some spammers might go to the trouble and expense of direct miner submission we should abandon all attempts at stopping spam? This is not a credible argument.
