Data storage on bitcoin is.. whatever? Pay miners.

Introduction of MEV is a *huge* issue.

As we’ve seen with ETH both pre- and post-PoS MEV creates intense centralization pressure that would all but defeat the purpose of bitcoin. Luckily there’s no excuse for introducing MEV - any system you design which does introduce it can ~always be designed to avoid the introduction of MEV. While people play around with systems built on top of Bitcoin it’s important to suggest MEV-avoiding alternatives and discourage use of MEV-introducing systems.
