What are those features?
Ordinals, Runes and anything that is decreasing the efficiency of the network while increasing fees. The purpose of the network is to provide a "peer-to-peer electronic cash" system.  Anything that is not directly related to this mission should not be in the code.

I don’t really see any point with ordinals. It’s completely unnecessary and does not contribute to the development and betterment of bitcoin as a cryptocurrency. It might be attracting investors but like you said, bitcoin should be exactly what it was intended for.

However, we can not prevent bitcoin from becoming more as more people try and make bitcoin “better”. I guess we just have to accept that this is all part of innovation and will always be present as technology advances.
