I don’t think they would necessarily be cheaper, they would still be competing with all other transactions.

Something Shinobi said on WBD (with a listen if you haven’t already) was that not having visibility about what’s going into a block can be an issue if you need to make a transaction ‘now’ If you don’t have a clear picture of the mempool you don’t know what you need to pay to get your transaction confirmed.

The start of the whole thing was to do with a layer 2 that needed 140 bytes in OP_RETURN rather than 80.

I have started the WBD podcast, but couldn’t finish today. I will watch it and reply for sure. Thanks for sending the recommendation. My respect for Shinobi has gone up and I’m only 10 minutes in. He has already said that he didn’t read the Citrea white paper nor the pull request. He is going off of the information he has received from other developers. So far it is worth the watch. It’s not that inscriptions or jpegs bloat the UTXO set that he is worried about. They want this change specifically for Citrea. This doesn’t sound so sneaky anymore because it makes sense. There is a motive. I still will filter my nodes, but I understand why they want to push this. Doesn’t make it right nor wrong.
