Well known devs and BlackRock ETFs won't go hand in hand. They want a say and they get their say.
Adversarial thinkers left Bitcoin almost a decade ago. Reaping what you saw will bring some natural healing, that will come at the cost of a new shism. It's necessary.

Everyone talking about OP_RETURN but nobody talking about witness data is pretty wild.
The irony is that with the current PR, Core devs might actually push everyone to switch to Knots, which limits witness data to 400kb (which is what actually matters to block current abuses) and OP_RETURN to 42 bytes (which does nothing).
Core would have more credibility IMO to increase OP_RETURN size (opening up the design space for prunable metadata ledger use — way better than what’s currently happening) if they paired it with a witness data limit in the same PR.
