Well, I was asking that because, as I understand your criteria, the big block stance wouldn't be an attack on Bitcoin. You mention you consider it because of criteria #5. To be honest, I don't think I fully grasp what you mean by "compromising the blockchain integrity" nor how did the big blockers threaten that.

big blocks -> blockchain grows faster -> more space required sooner -> higher costs to running a node -> less nodes -> more centralization -> less censorship resistant -> more potential for forks -> more potential for compromise of blockchain integrity
Ordinals or BRC20 do none of that. On the contrary: they contribute to the security budget
