If it wasn't spam, but a genuine onboarding process of new users, these discussions and ideas wouldn't need to exist. The only ideas that would be valid would be ways of scaling.

That's the thing though: these are new users being onboarded, and they are "genuine" as far as the network is concerned. Until all miners collectively decide to reject their transactions (which will never happen), Ordinals (and now Runes) users can't be stopped.

I guarantee these are still just passing fads though and nobody will care nearly as much about them a year from now. They will have just left a lot of blockchain bloat in their wake, and there's no way to stop it.

Yeah, the emergence of rune is like a reminder that if one of their exhortation scheme fails another would sprang up.
Ordinals already losing their hype so they brought runes and once runes popularity start failing another would be brought it.
Such creativity but not directed towards the positive growth in the blockchain but to enrich their pocket
Without considering the long term consequence.
Rune is like a parasite and not a very symbiotic one in the long run .
They argue that they are improving on the uses of Bitcoin but it seems like they trying to create another ETH.
Bitcoin Layer 2 adoption has not been promising but technology is increasing and new innovations would definitely arise to combat it.
You can't really find a solution if you don't know the problem.
