We don’t want running a node to require heavy duty servers, do we? I rather like being able to run my node on an 8gb RAM Rasp Pi 4 with added 2TB disk. Not sure how long at this rate my hardware will remain viable. It’s only a few months old.

Quite a while.
I sure hope so. Watching the mempool transaction count grow has been my recent entertainment. 😁
Yeah, but that doesn't really matter that much. You'll get full blocks for awhile, but it's still capped to some extent. And the ordinals thing will die off as soon as enough people get rugged/sick of making dick jokes on chain.
