IMHO if you agree to arguments against this change (configurable setting), you might as well just drop -datacarriersize. Yes, you can't prevent miners from mining Inscriptions, but same applies to larger OP_RETURNs too.
It's just not a very intelligent solution. I'd rather he make a new setting for witness script sizes rather than using the existing datacarrier setting and looking for envelopes. The people who disagree think it's pointless to single out inscriptions because there are so many other ways to store data.
