Yes. Users probably like this feature and client side filtering is not a =
drop-in replacement for BIP37.
We should also consider:
BIP37 works, because node-operators are willing to offer that service =
for free (which maybe change over time).
BIP37 consumes plenty of horsepower (disk/cpu) from nodes. Filtering a =
couple of days of blocks (assume 1000+) eats lots of resources for =
something, that has no direct long-term value for Bitcoin (the filters =
data is unique and will be "thrown away=E2=80=9C [can=E2=80=99t be used =
by other peers]). Same applies for mempool (filtering mempool of a =
couple of hundred of mb each time the HD gap limit has been exceeded or =
the app gets sent to the foreground again).
Purely relying on the availability of BIP37 seems fragile to me and =
start to explore other ways is very reasonable.
