Pushbytes segregation is not a lie. Increase the OP_RETURN to 520 bytes and there wouldn't be an argument. Is there a project that needs more than 520 bytes?

Or blame those pushing a contentious change?

But isn't this true though? Doesn't Bitcoin Core v30 allow more writing on-chain by lifting the OP_RETURN limit? 1) In a more general terms, isn't the Bitcoin Core 30> direction to make Bitcoin more open to data in general? 2) Or is it false that Bitcoin core 30> wants to move in the direction to reduce or filter Bitcoin data to just be monetary data? Because it seems that it's clearly 1.

You ser are a liar. I see you.

Wow. That 2nd message. He seems to be saying that it's not a problem if it ends up in a block, but is a problem if it's gossiped. But ... blocks get gossiped ..?

Yup...
