Sorry, I forgot one point which is pertinent to this conversation.

*Even with* fullrbf-everywhere and V3, pinning via rule#3 and rule#5 are
still an issue in coinjoin scenarios.

Each coinjoin adversary can double-spend their coin to either full package
weight(101kvb),
or give 24 descendants, which means you quickly pay out the nose in rule#3
or are excluded
from RBFing it if you have 4+ greifers in your coinjoin violating rule#5.

If we instead narrowed this policy to marking a transaction output as
opt-in to V3, it gets a bit more interesting. *Unfortunately,
double-spending counterparties can still cause rule#3 pain, one 100kvb
package of junk per peer,* but rule#5 violations is at least contained to
coinjoins with ~50 peers(assuming two transactions booted per input
double-spent, which would be the V3 max bumped per input).

It's still worth exploring, but very speculatively.
