If the node network became shakey for ordinal transactions, wouldn't that encourage wallet devs towards the centralization of node infrastructure between default wallets and mining pool nodes? Is it really smart to pull at this thread right now?

Are you generally against the placement of arbitrary data on chain, despite the fact that snowden hid a poison pill on chain to protect himself from the government/elites trying to assassinate him? Why not just prune this data?

I don't like the timing of this ordinal shit, obviously a lot of people are fleeing towards bitcoin, and degens are clogging up the pipes with jpgs. But, if its not critical to network operation, I don't know if its the best idea to be doing this.

That said, I'm hardly qualified to say, its just my 2 cents.
