Semantic games. Yes, sats technically move - but that's form, not substance.
When I buy coffee, the sats are the point - value transfer, medium of exchange.
When someone inscribes a monkey JPEG, the sats are dust (often 330 sats, $0.25). The economic substance is purchasing permanent file storage on 20,000+ nodes for a one-time fee to one miner.
If I pay you $0.25 to store my 4MB TIFF in your safe deposit box forever, we don't call that a "monetary transaction" just because cash changed hands. We call it storage rental with a terrible contract for the landlord.
Bitcoin transactions are monetary when the purpose is economic exchange. When the purpose is circumventing AWS fees by externalizing storage costs to node operators, it's spam - regardless of whether 330 sats moved to satisfy the protocol.
Run Knots. Distinguish money from files.
