Why was deleting the OP_RETURN limit an emergency?

It was never claimed to be an emergency. It also wasn’t a consensus change. You are free to run which ever relay policy for your node as you like. To pretend like changing a default setting is anywhere near the same thing as a consensus change is just another example in the long line of disingenuous fuckery we have seen from the pro 110 crew.

But it’s not just changing a default setting is it, the limit setting has been deprecated, which means it will likely be dropped completely in future versions, stripping the user of the power to modify the setting themselves. Why couldn’t they just leave it the fuck alone in the first place?

Just like the previous default setting was not a hard control, neither has raising the default limit introduced any sort of hard control against hiding arbitrary data in transactions. All this means is now more arbitrary data can be stored in OP_RETURN as well as hidden in other places like before. ...
