many of the knots-people (not the developers but the people following them) seem to think that by 'filtering the spam' they can keep it off their node completely. they want no spam they want to be 'spam-free' so they run knots to keep the spam 'to a minimum'.
like "filtering their email inbox" is how it is explained
they don't understand they actually download the spam regardless.
and then when the alternative/nuance is explained they say "oh you're just malicious"! "you hate bitcoin!"
"you're corrupt!!!" which is not helpful obviously.
True, and I think that that's a generic issue across nearly every facet of society that I am aware of.
However: one would think that someone running an actual pool using that software would understand the benefits of not having to mine empty block templates for a minute. The impact - no matter how small - is in the block template inclusion policy. If one were to claim that the greatest good is financial transactions even at a loss of income, then mining an empty block isn't cool.
edit re: the emotional appeal. That's where we're at as humanity... I have a little experimental locally running AI that I can ask to rewrite an email without emotional pitfalls. It actually makes sense to simply feed every bitcoindev list mail to it.
Project for the coming weekend lol.
