As a non technical pleb, can someone tell me if this is a big deal or a tempest in a teapot? I suspect the latter?

The data carrier size has always referred to the limit for op_return outputs. Luke decided unilaterally that it should also apply to inscription envelopes, and made the corresponding change in his own full node software, Knots. Some people want inscriptions to be non-standard and have been advocating for this change to be merged in Bitcoin Core, but it has not gained support among other Bitcoin contributors for various reasons.

Seems like one of those things where people of good intent could disagree, but instead of that, bunches of people accuse the other bunches of being scammers, bad actors, and shitcoin sympathizers.

Another Thursday on bitcoin Twitter, basically.

Sounds like bikeshedding to me:

Bikeshedding, also known as Parkinson’s law of triviality, describes our tendency to devote a disproportionate amount of our time to menial and trivial matters while leaving important matters unattended.

Interesting. After ruminating and podcast listening I've come to the conclusion that 'the bug' is in the mind. A similar example might be..

You had a recycling trash bin and a regular trash bin. Someone kept filling the recycling trash bin with regular trash and then phoned the local council to report that the recycling bin has a bug.
