With stamps the explicit goal was to bloat the UTXO set. Their marketing framed that as "unprunable". Counterparty was designed before SegWit and due to fee spikes around that time was pretty much unmaintained afaik. BRC-20 is just crazy. JK, I have no idea how that one works. https://bitcoinexplainedpodcast.com/@nado/episodes/bitcoin-explained-76-stamps-and-the-invalid-block-caused-by-it

Stamps use CounterParty under the hood, which simply switches to bare multisig once the payload goes over 80 bytes. With the proposed Bitcoin Core change to policy, or just considering relay reality, CounterParty could stop doing that. But afaik nobody is maintaining it, and the inefficiency is a feature for some of its users (stamps).
