Most nodes oppose the change in v30. Most nodes also oppose the change proposed in BIP110. So why not roll back both and slow down? Take the time to develop serious solutions. Let different teams propose different approaches. Evaluate them openly. Test them thoroughly. Compare the trade-offs honestly. Then, in one or two years, decide which path truly makes sense for Bitcoin. As long as Core refuses to reverse its change, I feel pushed toward supporting the fork. We clearly have a spam problem and spam harms Bitcoin in multiple ways. Ignoring it is not a strategy. Pretending it has no meaningful impact is the wrong approach. If the change were rolled back, I would be willing to give the process more time. I do not see this as an immediate emergency. But failing to address the issue and signaling that spam will simply be tolerated will only accelerate the problem. That is not a direction Bitcoin should move toward.

That's sensible. Good thing is, that it's very hard to change Bitcoin. If one side had a very good reason, Bitcoiners would accept it by themselves. If you just keep your node as it is (knots or core) and don't update, nothing changes. I'm just reminded of those messages from my bank, warning me of scams by telling me what I should look out for. One point they all mention is, that "urgency" is a constant tool. This creates uncertainty and maybe even fear. Decisions made from fear are not good decisions.
