I don’t think footprint is a huge problem with this protocol. On Nomen output is 41 bytes in total. That means if every single person on earth registered one, it would only add 370 GB to the blockchain. It’s not like you need a lot of these names, or need to make frequent transactions on chain. Of course, that isn’t possible, anyway. Long before that happened, a name will be too expensive to register on chain for almost anyone, and they will move to sidechains (I talk about this at the end of the post).
