I agree that ordinals are not damaging and are something akin to speedrunning a game. though the shared nature of the blockchain has a different effect there. one persons speedrun doesn't have any effect on another persons playing of the game, not the case with ordinal use.
Im not sure it maps to create a system that is designed to be decentralized, permisissionless and censorship-resistant. And also be annoyed at how people use such a system.
That's one of the whole objectives. It's a middle finger to anyone who tries to excert control over others.
