Note that instead of "OP_DROP OP_DROP", people can use "OP_2DROP", so the n=
umber of dropping opcodes could be halved.

That means people can still reject an official alternative (for example com=
mitments), so a different approach is needed to fight that spam. Assuming t=
hat transactions will be sent directly to the miners, they will be included=
, that way or another. So, the solution should assume that we will have lar=
ge NOPs in the chain. And then, if we want to deal with them, some kind of =
pruning is needed. Switching from witness to non-witness node is not an opt=
ion, because it would require additional witness validation, and because ru=
les for OP_RETURN can be also lifted.
So, how to prune the Script? In a typical hash function, like SHA-256, data=
are splitted into smaller chunks, and then processed linearly. I think it =
is possible to store the first and the last chunk, and keep the internal st=
ate of SHA-256, before entering the last chunk. In this way, it should be p=
ossible to prune those OP_NOPs. Because that solution will also cover raw s=
cripts (people can switch to them if witness will be more restricted than n=
ow).
Also, it gives us a hint, that if any Script upgrade will be considered in =
the future, we can think about doing it in a way, where unused parts can be=
pruned, without invalidating signatures.

I realize this is confusingly worded. I mean, they'd provide the `FALSE`
as a separate witness element rather than being part of the witnessScript.
