Sorry forgot to reply. Basically the original argument was that Core fundamentally changed Bitcoin when they changed the op return limit. As in, they had changed the way Bitcoin worked at a network level. That also means not just for nodes running that software, but for everyone on the network. But when BIP110 was first introduced, it was framed as 'Core have changed Bitcoin, we want to change it back.' That message may have changed now, but that was certainly the original framing. Then as time went on the community level of understanding about the difference between relay policy and consensus policy deepened. I had no idea about any of this before this whole drama, and neither did most people. But now it's quite apparent that Core didn't change the consensus rules, they just changed the default policy to match consensus. And quite the opposite, it's BIP110 which is actually a change to Bitcoin, and not just for the people running it, but for everyone else too. That's the only sometimes dishonest feeling thing about the framing, just that it keeps shifting

Ahhh cool. I understand what you mean now. Still running BIP110 though - Core can go fuck themselves because despite what you point out, they don't care for Bircoin or sound money or anything Bitcoiners actually care about.

This is cope. Core removed the OP_RETURN limit knowing full well it would open the floodgates for spam. Calling it 'just policy' doesn't change the real-world effect. BIP-110 isn't 'changing Bitcoin' — it's defending what Bitcoin was. The framing isn't shifting, yours is.
