But, they do take extra blockspace, which makes running a node more costly. Unfortunately, Taproot increased that consensus limit, allowing more exploitation.
I guess my question... why not still try to limit the graffiti, rather than encourage it? "We can't eliminate every piece of graffiti" seems a pretty lame response to not try.
Will it destroy Bitcoin? Probably not. We've got a very determined community. We'll find a way to run nodes even if the costs to do so go up. But, it would be MUCH better if that cost didn't go up, and more people ran nodes.
