I don't know what allegation you are referring to, but I don't think the spam filters stop high-effort spammers -- they work by reducing the amount of spam from low-effort spammers

It is either illegal to run a node or not. You are either serving CSAM or not. The amount that changes that is "any at all" not "less than an alleged alternate reality I made up" There are way better and cheaper ways to store CSAM just like any other data. The only reason to do it is an attack. This isn't a situation where people will upload their collection anymore than people will upload their MP3 collection. The path is already there before core 30. All we lack is the motivated attacker.
