We should still make spam as difficult as possible to mitigate the Blockchain being used as free data storage. Filters are the main tool to do this.
We aren't on a bitcoin standard and people will use abundant fiat to pay people to shove crap into the Blockchain, causing unnecessary competition against people using bitcoin as money (the intended purpose of the protocol)
A junk transaction is protocol valid but if it is not a legitimate financial transaction and we should attempt to filter it, the same way we filter junk emails, junk mail, junk nostr posts, etc
