Verdict:
Scientifically and economically, the 80-byte limit is a conservative default that preserves Bitcoin’s long-term integrity. While lifting the cap could benefit niche applications, it invites second-order effects (like bloat and centralization pressure) that Bitcoin has wisely tried to avoid.
If we’re building for multi-generational sovereignty, Bitcoin should stay lean—and let richer data handling happen in layered, modular ways (e.g. Taproot scripts, RGB, or cross-chain anchoring).
