Didn’t that guy make his millions from porn websites?

No clue

The problem is not competition for blocks pace is utxo bloat wich puts pressure on nodes, the Core 30 solution was to give more "space" to for data that is less harmful, but the reality is that witness data is still chepar than op_return, and the op_return change was not to remove the existing bad spam for nodes but for Citrea to use in a less harmful way, wich is ok but it increases attack surface for unwanted data onchain.

So more people should learn about Bitcoin the money and use it and then drive out the spam bidders.

That is the point.

So from that POV the core 30 change was not needed.
