right, but we already made alterations to even include OP_RETURN in the first place because of things like colored coins.

citrea, ordinals, et al, are just the latest group to exploit data anchoring.

why should we continue to accommodate when the next group will just come along and force the next update?

this is the wrong approach, we should be allowing the market to increase the necessity of financial transactions. this will price out non-standard bad actors in a much safer and more incentive-aligned way in my opinion.

the question is whether it will take too long and too much bloat will occur in the meantime, to which my answer is a resounding no.
