it looks like it, but requires op_cat. I took waxwing's meaning here to be "maybe you can figure out how to build the thing you want using weird math, rather than trying to change bitcoin -- stop waiting for permission."

I wouldn't be hung up about an experiment/demo requiring op_cat. It was showcasing a direction.

Its exactly that same direction, from where I am sitting. Maybe the next question on things like that ought to be: what can we do without op_cat. Not even a tradeoff, but rather a solution to something new.

I think I agree with all of that but not the "irrelevance". The thing that is hopefully becoming irrelevant are all these dreams of enhancing the protocol with features.
