The Knots vs Core debate has a strange dividing line: philosophical concerns vs technical ones.
I also like the framing that those who prioritize Bitcoin as money are taking the Knots side, and those who prioritize Bitcoin as technology are taking the Core side.
I know what is more important for me. Bitcoin the technology is only relevant because it solves the problem of money for the world. Bitcoin is money. The technology is just the enabler.
Making Bitcoin worse at being money is a bad thing. The arguments for enabling spam for technical reasons make no sense to me. This makes Bitcoin worse as money. I'm not in favor of that. At all.
I think this resume to this simple question.
¿Bitcoin should be only a monetary system or could be a data system?

Money. If it's a data system, there's no reason to care about it. It's a triviality. If it's not money, it's worthless to me.
But data system is also a money system.
Money system is necessary restrictive vs data system.
