All of the ones Satoshi added are definitive, there is no question around 21 million or what constitutes proof of work.
"Spam" however is defined differently by everyone. This is why it won't work.

I am happy to discuss the effectiveness of spam limits in another thread. In this thread, my aim is to get consensus on this proposition:
it's sometimes okay to block other people's transactions based on moral objections
Got a problem with that?
Then you'll have to get rid of the 21 million cap, doublespend prevention, and proof of work. Because those all exist to block other people's transactions based on moral objections.
So what do *you* think? Is it sometimes okay to block other people's transactions based on moral objections?
No I am in absolute agreement that you can block whatever transactions you want for any reason with your own node.
If someone is going to pay a terrorist to detonate a bomb with an onchain transaction do you try to prevent that transaction from being mined? Or do you persue an avenue of terrorism prevention off-chain?
