Thanks for the demonstration.
The beauty of BTC is that opinions don't matter. As a public good, BTC would always face "tragedy of the commons", which is mostly mitigated by (small) blocksize.
Getting angry about Ordinals and SideChains is what some would call "p*ssing into the wind"
More of just your opinions. The fact that you said BTC doesn't care about opinions shows you have no idea what you are talking about. I guess you think the "opinions" of node runners and miners.. "doesn't matter" lmao... not to mention the other factor of the devs. The devs can push out whatever they want but if the "opinions" of the majority of nodes runners are against it, then they won't upgrade, stopping whatever the devs were trying to push. If humans opinions didn't matter, btc would never change, but low and behold it has over 14 years. What if the Devs push an upgrade to stop ordinals, and everyone upgrades… guess those opinions still wouldn't matter?

Running a node / mining bitcoin are actions, not opinions. Actions matter, and of course, opinions can/do drive actions
I'm not aware of any (significant) action being taken though, or planned, that would impact SideChains or Ordinals.
fwiw, I have no dog in this, other than a general concern for the development of an effective fee market to offset the imminent and ongoing loss of block reward.
