OP: Tinfoil hat: is it an attack?
No.
OP: Is it to 'probe' the Bitcoin network?
No.
OP: Like some sort of DoS?
No.

The explanation about why is as follows:
Holding UNCOMMON•GOODS can provide several advantages, including potential price appreciation, access to exclusive community events, and participation in governance decisions within the Runes ecosystem. [Sauce]
You yourself replied to your own answer, it's a memecoin1. These kind of project has only one logical path: being a degen, if that means that you have to make unsilly tx fees to gain tokens, so be it. I saw comments related to goverments attacks, mining attack and so on...no. See, they don't have any other purpose rather than (as they put it) appreciate the price, that's it sir.
But they're aTtacking muh bitc0in netw0rk
They don't. If you like to control what other people make with their money, I would suggest you to use Coinbase or any CeX.

Footnotes

  1. The moment you want to look reasoning for a memecoin, you lost. Memecoins are just casino tokens, made for gambling for people who want to gamble.

Runes ecosystem
There is no runes ecosystem. It's a total scam.

This isn't a person, it's a bot doing the same thing over and over.

Runes exists, you also referring to a transaction brocadcasted by miners and confirmed by nodes, therefore your opinions about what is (or not) spam is entirely yours and yours only. Ironically, you're using mempool to check and verify the transaction that is spam.

Bots are designed by people, not programmed by Hal9000. If you don't like bots or want to control transactions by your own morals, good luck sir

Spam exists. Whether or not it can be completely eliminated or reduced... is another issue entirely.
Runes do not exist. Show me a 'rune' on Bitcoin... you can't. Because they were made up arbitrarily by unscrupulous people to lure technically illiterate and economically illiterate people for their own personal gain.
THAT is crypto, and it does not belong on Bitcoin.
