And I’m not sure if you are misunderstanding op_return or what but can you explain how the recent change affects bandwidth, ram, or storage for noderunners? I know for a fact the block size limit prevents storage concerns but open to your opinion on bandwidth and ram, though I’m fairly confident the impact there is trivial.
