I don't want garbage on my node either, but I also want the network to run smoothly and avoid the UTXO bloat problem. That's why I was willing to consider their arguments and believe they were made in good faith. Maybe they are just looking at this from too narrow "network health" perspective or maybe they are in fact being influenced by miners or special interests, I'm not sure it matters. I am not down to open the floodgates to relaying infinite op_returns. The issues that they are trying to solve are not urgent and other solutions need to be considered. I really hope they shelve this change soon so we can start focusing on alternatives.
