...The point is, Bitcoin's blockchain should be isolated for the monetary purpose, because we don't get another chance. What you are adding here is an attack surface that will be exploited, you are gambling with people's savings from all over the world.

Yes! As you said, Bitcoin should continue for the monetary purpose for which it was created and nothing else! Besides, the point is also this: How dare they close the discussion on GitHub?! It is important to discuss this and for it to be a healthy discussion! I think that if there is no consensus, nothing should be changed! Satoshi put a limit for a reason!

It seems that OP_RETURN is working as a good spam filter, and I'm not convinced that it should be removed. I can see how removing OP_RETURN will contribute to the bloating of the Bitcoin network's size over time, making it more challenging for a large number of people to run a node. The more people who can run a node, the healthier the Bitcoin network will be.

Folks, running Bitcoin Core already requires more than 600 GB of storage space! That's a huge amount, and it will prevent many people from getting involved to help protect Bitcoin decentralization.

EXACTLY!! Very well said! They want the network to be decentralized, but they are doing everything they can to ensure that only a few can run a full Bitcoin node.

Remember, @satoshi wanted the network to be decentralized and for everyone to run a bitcoin node! Bitcoin belongs to everyone and should remain that way and for the purpose for which it was created! Think about that.
