Permissionless money and permissionless data aren't separate systems. Money IS data on Bitcoin. Every transaction is just bytes in a block. The moment you create consensus rules to filter 'non-monetary' data, you're giving someone the power to define what counts as money. That's not a technical distinction, it's a political one. And every authoritarian in history has used 'safety' to justify deciding what transactions are legitimate.

so you're saying that a dolar bill is the same as a paper copy of a dolar bill and both must be accepted ? ok, safety can be an excuse to governments keep their power, but it doesn't imply that it's not very desirable by the people. People gladly pay for safety, with money or anything else.
