Regardless of the submitter's rationale, it is easy to work around any rule
that denies mempool inclusion based on fee proportion: if you have plenty,
add inputs from your own wallet and return to yourself; if not, borrow them
and return to the lender, maybe with interest.

Another use case for paying more fees than outputs is to incentivize
honest mining when Bitcoin is under a state-level censorship attack.
If it's really important to me that my transaction goes through, I
might be willing to set a fee at 99x the output value. It's the only
way bitcoin could work

your example is of someone paying a fee "< sum" which wouldn't be blocked

Is it possible? Yes. Should we do that? My first thought was "maybe", but after
thinking more about it, I would say "no", here is why:
Starting point: 1 BTC on some output.
Current situation: A single transaction moving 0.9000 BTC as
fair. i suppose you could support cpfp in any dust filtering. im not a
fan, but I think its the only legit way to defend the chain from non money

seems like the only use case that would support such a tx is spam/dos type
stuff that satoshi warned about
its not a fix for everything, but it seems could help a bit with certain
attacks
