Hello,
I have developed nodes/wallets for Bitcoin and Bitcoin-derived Altcoins.
3rd-party Bitcoin developers take BIPs very seriously, basically as
must-implement/must-comply features.
Therefore, I think it would be best to restrict BIPs to the minimum
necessary to implement a complying node/wall
I propose to require all data to be in the op_return output PLUS add a
required op_return_hash field, which is checked by consensus. So that node
can re-validate the chain without having to store/download/look at the
contents of op_return data. The benefit of that little redundancy is that

mime types should be used. I'd say, the way the data is stored is anything
but 'obscure'. UIs will be popping up to make this really easy. The main
chain can't be censored, what's in a block is in a block. I'm predicting a

eventually coming or not. So why not make it so that if _either_ miners
_or_ users decide for Taproot, it will activate no matter what. Accepting a
chain split is imo the fairest way to 'resolve the conflict' (it can't be
