Adam Bach doing some heavy lifting driving more Noderunners to Knots. What a Chad. Dont run Knots because because "filter induced latency" LOL COPE OFF THE CHARTS!
Considering filters "don't do anything"..

Taproot is 4x cheaper? Does this hold water?
Putting spam in the witness data using the inscriptions hack is 4x cheaper, yes
the whole idea block propagation speed being slow makes mining more centralized makes no sense. its based on the idea that there is already a centralization... so dumb.
just mine with DATUM, solved
Adam has spent too much time with Wall Street that he has forgotten that Noderunners know what he is talking about. His gas lighting will not work.
... also, To the extent that big miners benefit by slower propagation of the blocks that they mine, they could just delay broadcasting those blocks.
All of these arguments regarding incentives - but completely ignore the obvious competing incentives - really get tiresome.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this latency also bad for big miners? If 2 blocks are found close to the same time, the miner including all those garbage transactions nobody has seen before also risks a stale block because the "standard" block was already validated by the majority of nodes already. Thats why slip stream cost double the regular network fee to make up for this possibility.
I dont know how this really affects the network, but it sure seems we cant get a straight answer out of Core apologists and they seem to be really unhappy with Noderunners running their own settings.
