Nope.
The larger Ocean gets, and the more it mitigates the effects in its blocks, the more fees it will leave on the table for other pools. And once individual miners are building their own blocks via Stratum V2, I'd expect that many will choose to maximize fees even on Ocean.
The incentive to spam-filter isn't the same for miners as it is for SMTP servers.

I thought that most of the mempool is clogged up with low-fee ordinals/inscriptions/BRC-20 token degen gambling speculators. That’s crowding people who actually want to use the network out of a low fee environment into a high fee environment. If OCEAN enforces a filter against that, the number of their low fee transactions sitting in the mempool will increase. Some might get frustrated and just stop, but those that remain will have to pay a higher fee for the non-Ocean pool to take their transaction. The higher fee environment may further erode speculation. StratumV2 isn’t going to help them unless they up their fees. Unless I’m wrong.
