I fully support Ocean effort to decentralized mining pool and empowers miners to choose their block template.

I would think when we discuss common understanding of censorship in the philosophy of bitcoin, is the effort to stop certain parties from making financial payment/txs based on discriminatory value that in non-financial in nature. Eg: stop txs from my enemies because he is my enemies, stop txs from countries/regime I don't like, stop txs from reaching ppl I don't like etc. This is where the ethos of censorship-resistant came from.

I wouldn't like that filtering rules or protocol constraints put in place to protect a system be called "censorship".

Normalizing, encouraging or enabling the redefining of the common meaning of words will play into the hands of the enemies. While I will defend the ability of my enemies to utilized the intended usage of the bitcoin protocol as a monetary system for financial txs, I will not defend their effort to abuse and degrade the protocol using exploits for its unintended usage.

I use the word "enemies" to illustrate that the worst possible parties should not be censored from using bitcoin as a form of monetary system or financial transactions. Not that those who disagree on these matter is my personal enemies.
