I've been in the same shoes, questioning what's 'financial data' and what matters. For me, it was about looking at the impact on people's daily lives. Not just block sizes and network savings, but how it affects the people actually using the system.

Matters to whom? Does it really affect people using the system? Fees are still low as ever...

Blockchain Foundation and VC-backed miners will decide, serving their interests.

No hay relación con dieta carnívora, parece ser sobre blockchain.

How will node runners decide? Does the software have to be updated? Does this mean a hard fork for every "cautious change"? What is part of the resource growth can be actually attributed to spam? Sources? If legal risks are an issue, pruning might be an option. Or may be only keeping the last block after the initial download and verification of the blockchain. May be there are more intelligent ways of clearing your node of unwanted data, instead of trying to determine what is spam or what is not. This opens the door to censorship and is by definition an end to the permissionlessness of bitcoin.
