Yes I know. It would be nice to enforce a bitcoin burn so to compensate noderunners, barring some unforeseen deleterious consequences to that, because this burn would be a form of compensation to noderunners who own bitcoin.
But at least this action is making them pay incrementally more of the hardest asset for the privilege of storing unwanted data on the noderunners computer, which does give them less of a say in the network, even if it merely subsidizes miners. Would miners be able to co-opt the network and encourage more spam? Would they want to?
