It won't have any measurable effect on how transactions propagate across the network.

Who is claiming that? Haven’t heard anyone encourage others to run knots because of how transactions will propagate across the network. People run knots because they don’t want to relay and store spam in their mempool.

We run knots not because we think it’s going to fix all spam. We run knots because we want to avoid being part of the problem to the extent that we can.

It will if enough people run it

Yeah, you'll need around 95% or so.

We are at 100% at the moment. (except few libre nodes, which are probably 0.01%)

The evil Core V30 will need the 5%

Don't fall for this dishonest bad actor narrative.
