Dust limits are mempool policy. It doesn’t affect what can go into blocks.
so... even if standard mempool policy was changed to 1000 sats indicating anything less than 1000 sats is 'dust'...
doesn't that make the current dust situation worse? the current dust outputs of 546 sats become unspendable.
and someone who wants to spend 999 sats (just shy of a dollar) can't. isn't that censorship?

Why do you think they become unspendable? Again, dust limits are mempool policy.

not unspendable but if the vast majority of nodes enforce that 'dust limit' in their individual mempools, then yes spending those outputs becomes harder. did i misunderstand this?
the whole 'debate' as of late isn't about 'what goes into blocks' it's about mempool policy
