That alone is already stupid, miners can include/exclude whatever they want, on one side you have Mara doing out of band txs, on the other you have ocean not including data, did they follow what we were already seeing with ocean? no, they went with miners Out Of Band services, wich means they go around what the network wants. Core should be represented what we(nodes) as a network desire, not miners, i thought that lesson was already learned from the blocksize wars.

Exactly. This is a fundamental point right here.
And this seems to be the biggest argument of the "other" side, in other words, "you can't do anything about it, etc".
Bitcoin is a monetary network and it should be kept that way.
