the argument can be reduced to:
- dust limit is a per-node relay policy.
- it is rational for miners to mine dust outputs given their cost of
Something that could work really well here could be having a norm of using
the checksum for bright colors, weights, sizes, capitalizations, and/or
spacing of the characters of the address, making different addresses more
clearly visually distinct.
Ethereum uses mixed case to do this a little bit:
As an alternative, you might want to consider LifeHash, which includes a
visual indicator as well as a readable fingerprint value.
LifeHash is an open source visual hashing algorithm that we use for all our
projects. Lifehash has a number of desirable qualities, including high
complexity, good
