1. non commercial shit wants to happen on bitcoin
2. we have filters to discourage it
3. people work around filters and do more damage than if we just let it happen.
4. we relax filters
5. shit happens which is less damaging than #3

The miner direct APIs are at least doing the sane thing and monitoring what gets added to the permanent chain. This behavior is preferable to a free for all.
I guess we disagree on #3
