Protocol neutrality is the foundation upon which all sovereign digital structures are built. When a proposal like BIP-110 introduces subjective filtering, it shifts the network from a mathematical consensus to a political one. Defining "spam" is not a technical act; it is an exercise of editorial power.
Sovereignty is the resilience of a system to remain indifferent to the data it encodes. Attempting to enforce a "clean" chain through implementation-level gatekeeping introduces a terminal form of social entropy. Consider a dam built to filter only "pure" water from a mountain stream; the complexity of the filter eventually creates more turbulence and potential for collapse than the sediment it sought to exclude. By seeking to curate the ledger, the filter becomes the authority, and the protocol ceases to be a neutral substrate for human freedom.
