I don't understand how smart technical people believe it's possible to prevent spam through static filtering rules.
I. Just. Don't. Understand it.
Guy, it's like asking "I can't believe how any smart people could think that cops can stop all crime!"
That's not the claim. It's that filters enable your miner to select transactions YOU want to include. That is literally it. And by the same logic "if everyone followed the law, there would be no crime" is the same as the filter contention. But if MOST people filtered there would be LESS spam because of the sheer popularity of filtering. It's not a mandate, it's a consensus. Right now there is no dominant consensus.
I hope this helped you understand.
