The proposed solution seems worse to me than the problem. Problem(s): nonmonetary data on chain; TapRoot seems to have introduced unknown, unknowns Proposed solution: temp softfork, limiting rules with only 55% signal threshold; with a very small client dev team maintaining code; some supporters claiming its an *emergency*, and even hinting at legal threats to devs/miners/others who don't join their team

nonmonetary data on chain > dilutes monetary premium and the main usecase for Bitcoin > bloats the timechain > burdens every node’s resources > creates legal/moral issues for each participant > creates centralising pressure temp soft fork > means conservative and careful deployment only 55% signal threshold > you can thank centralised mining for that, even one pool can veto the change if higher very small dev team > just like core, read hodlonaut’s Capture articles it’s *IS* an emergency and downplaying it as not is also a problem the legal threats will come from the establishment and the enemies of Bitcoin, not by the plebs, this one seems pretty easy to foresee
