Is totally useless for regular Umbrel/MyNode users that DO NOT ALSO MINE BTC. You will get spam in blocks anyway. You are filtering only your local mempool, but that doesn't help you remove the spammed blocks mined by others that do not filter them.
If you are a big miner with some decent hash rate, then maybe you can do some change, otherwise ... is this.

I agree that you're not going to prevent spams getting into blocks without being a large scale miner but I am not worried about that. I don't trust some core devs specially the ones who are pushing for the recent upgrades and I refuse to run their recent malicious code of attack on Bitcoin. And I reserve the right move away from core as far as I know.
You're missing the entire point. It's not about filtering spams only it's about the freedom move out and refusing to go back.
But also just a side note, a malicious miner will have a lower chance to find a spammy block if most people don't want to relay(or keep) spams in their mempool, so the honest miner wins in the end which may or may not incentivize bad actors to be honest.
This mentality of there is nothing you can do about it is complacent and unproductive.

LOL your local mempool have nothing to do with a random miner that also is running his own node... It matters ONLY if you also mine, with a decent hashrate that can have a voice.
The whole this debate is useless. Please use your rationale and not just blindly follow influencers that have no clue. And if you are a clueless user that have no idea about what is going on... just do nothing, let the things settle.

You are not looking at things far ahead in the future, ocean isn't relaying spam blocks they already make more money than other mempools (proportionally) and they are on uptrend as oppose to others.
When a miner is looking for a block other nodes need to make sure this is a valid block, having more suspicious TX increase your latency and lower your chances as an other miner with less fishy TX can pick it up and win the block. This may sound a bit too theoretical BC ocean is still too small and fundry is still too big.

Soo... you answer to yourself: it doesn't matter for any umbrel/mynode node runner that is NOT mining.

I agree, if you are not sure what do then you should stay on older version of core.
