I don't believe that more and more rules will improve life. People need the freedom to make mistakes in order to learn. But everyone learns at their own pace, and that's why I don't leave my car unlocked with the key in the ignition.
Social organization is allways in process and we could finally learn to really take part in what we are participating in and to think along with it.
Will we make mistakes? Of course! But I prefer to make my own mistakes. Cuz in my own funny ways. I find I learn much more.

Agreed, as I understand it - & I'm not a tech guy - core wants to keep the spam in a certain area (op_return) to keep it away from the utxo area. At least, that's the official argument.
But you can't say with certainty that this works. Also, the argument of the other side seems conclusive to me that a filter (unlike censorship) does not have to filter 100% to be legitimate.
The fact that core tried to rush the whole thing through by removing the option for any “core mempool” altogether has, in my opinion (post above), quite rightly caused an outcry. I see it as a test of whether non-tech bitcoiners really think for themselves or are just following another “pied piper”. Since bitcoin is such a unique one-shot, even this painstaking dicing out of little things isn't a bad thing. Many are deepening their knowledge & we can all find out how this should work if so many people want to participate as Self-responsible as possible. However, it looks like Core has now considered another proposal in which the option remains. Then you don't have to decide right away :)

Greg Maxwell's take: There isn't anything unusual or bad going on *with* Bitcoin Core. In my opinion there does appear to be a dishonest and inauthentic social media campaign *against* Bitcon Core....

Remember that we have an entire generation behind us in which a few determined what everyone used. Even if a few overreact now, it's only healthy because they want to understand what's happening & not be dependent again on the hidden decisions of a few. Of course it becomes difficult when people have a say without knowing the underlying issues, but that's part of the process of a real response to decades of abuse.
