I didn't want to support BIP-110 and I still don't know what I'll do, but I realize that Monero limited the size of the tx_extra field to avoid Mordinals and everyone agreed, because Monero is what it is, for sending private transactions, not for filling it with crap like Monos jpgs. This reaffirms my theory that the Core kernel is corrupt to the core. What should I do?

I'm personally running BIP-110. Not because I'm super technical, but mainly out of protest of everything core has been doing. They seem out of touch of the cypherpunk ethos and captured by something entirely different. I'd love to see many other client implementations, that would be the solution in my eyes.
I am in favor of BIP110. I think it is responsible. Effectively what it does to mine with it, even if not everyone agrees on those consensus restrictions, is to prioritize certain blocks over others, and that is something that was always built into the design of Bitcoin, whether consciously recognized by Bitcoin OGs or not. It ALWAYS was going to start to look like this. Rough consensus with very interesting power dynamics. Using it as a user is arguably an even stronger signal, as you are saying, this is the only version of Bitcoin that I call the true Bitcoin.
