Those assertions made by a government alone would make me oppose said fork. Everything can be illegal if the right people so desire. Fiat cash is the #1 medium of exchange in classical illegal activity, i.e. the sale of prohibited (both moral and immoral) goods and services.

Does the new node software change the fundamental use case of Bitcoin?

Nope. I would imagine any such shitcoiners would be rejected by the main economic actors since violating the fundamental usecase of bitcoin makes the network worthless.

What if it’s only “temporary,” though…? 😬

Let’s do a quick thought experiment. Imagine a government wants to attack Bitcoin. What could they do? They can compromised a number of developers. The developers could start slowly degrading Bitcoin. They could change the definition of Bitcoin being "digital currency that uses peer-to-peer technology" to just be a "peer-to-peer network". They could change the definition of the datacarriersize. Using that as argument they could deny fixing the inscriptions spam. Then they could use the inscriptions spam as an argument that spam is unstoppable so they better blow up OP_RETURN and invite even more spam. Just like BSV did after which someone uploaded CSAM to the BSV blockchain.

The point is that Bitcoin is money not data storage. Core 30 brings BS and we should do

F the DS.

This will happen. Then it is your choice to stay or go.

Obvious once you see it.

No, I would not. Now, let's do another thought experiment: Imagine the Core team decides to radically change bitcoin into a piece of software that openly states that it welcomes any non-monetary-transaction-content, legal or illegal, and will relay it. They decide to call it v30. Would you run v30? Is that the hill you choose?
