I’m not technical so maybe just very dumb on this issue but I still haven’t understood how spam kills bitcoin. The closest I’ve seen is saying spam hurts decentralization because nodes become bloated and expensive to run therefore fewer plebs can afford to run them. This seems like it’ll happen eventually anyway, like it’s less of a problem as storage costs continue to plummet, and like it may be completely moot because you can always run a pruned node.

If there is a serious security/decentralization/adoption risk I will absolutely stop supporting ordinals/stamps/L2s, fair money is by far the most important thing right now.

It's bloat, you're right. That's the issue. The talk is about the content but there is a technical side to it. It will squeeze people out. Maybe it's one maybe it's half of everyone I have no idea there's no reason to increase any limits.
