ok I see, but what still puzzles me is this:

1) it seems the only way to stop spams is to change what a valid transaction is at the consensus level. This was discussed in the past (2 years ago PR was submitted if I am correct) but it was rejected as "controversial". But the PR that was just pushed now in a hurry (remove filters) is also clearly controversial. So why does it work in one way but not the other? And why have we given up dicussing it at the consensus level?

2) I don't understand why we are so worried about fees for miners, isn't the block reward more than enough for a few years? is any miner going to stop mining because the fees are too low now? Also, I thought the difficulty adjustment was there to self-regulate the mining ecosystem, why are we now intervening to give miners bigger fees?

3) Hypothetically, let's say that with this core 29v it does happens that spam transaction fill blocks and drive up fees, making it harder and more expensive for monmey transactions to get in. At this point will core "rewind" and reinstate the filter or discuss change at consensus level? Because from their statements it seems that in this case their stance would be "oh well btc is a database for whatever the market wants it to be, so if it is for jpeg and spamsn then let it be it"
