Yeah so I am a retard but I still don’t understand how it fixes anything. I just can’t see utxo bloat as a problem. It’s 13gb in a 700+ gb disk when you run node and electrum. People are going to buy 2tb disk soon and they are less than $100. Even 4tb instead for under $250. Yet it seems like the main reason the 140iq people are making to the 80iq people is to be scared of “utxo bloat” but nothing is stopping a real attacker from bloating the utxo set anyway. So in the event of a real attack, how does less filter options help anyone? That’s what I end up thinking.

i mostly agree with you and did just upgrade to 2T. but I am confused because many voices i considered ‘trusted’ are saying the change is fine. my sense is that the limit should just remain. but also that i have no say over it beyond running a different implementation
