What is valuable is a very subjective thing. I think op_return is a good thing and i think good husbandry of the commons that is the utxo set and the blockchain a thing to be encouraged. I suspect you are correct and a lot of the perceived value of onchain jpegs will evaporate. But do we risk making things worse with a sort fork introducing new potential or do we simply let the market decide?

does that include Satoshi and the coinbase transaction of the genesis block ?

i do not know, I just know people have been putting arbitary data into the chain for over a decade and its impossible to prevent it

Ordinals put data in witness, but you have to assign some value to outputs else the transaction would be invalid. You can put data directly into the utxo set too .. Counterparty XCP has been used to do this with OP_CHECKMULTISIG since 2014, The satoshi uploader predates that and used the UTXO set in 2013

If you want your data to live in the utxo set you can use outputs as low as 546 sats which is the dust limit

you can inscribe at any fee rate you wish, inscriptions are tied to satoshis, all of the BAYC monkey jpegs have been inscribed at a cost of over $1 million

For sure. You can do it in a second user profile that you only load if needed, so if there is an app that needs GSF that you can not live without you don't have to. Installing a esim for exqmple is one such use case

New Graphene with sandboxed Google Play is a nice upgrade from old Grapheme

In Amethyst you can set up a 1 satoshi zap and WoS will allow it

Sorry but I dont know. Electrum Wallet may be a better choice then Ledger live. EPS Electrum Personal Server can be used with your fullnode if you don't want too run an Electrum server
