My point is that it's hard to foresee every possible use case. We
don't know how everyone's infrastructure is set up. Some users might
only realize this change affects them after it's already released. And
if they do need to adjust something in their workflow, it's a lot
easier if they can temporarily restore the previous behavior. Right
now, those users aren't speaking up,  because they don't yet know
they'll be affected.

For example, someone might be running a device with very limited
resources that can't afford to store the full mempool, but also can't
disable it entirely. If they're only monitoring certain types of
transactions that never use OP_RETURN, filtering those out is a simple
and practical optimization.

Or consider a system that pulls mempool transactions via RPC from
Bitcoin Core. It might assume certain things about OP_RETURN outputs,
maybe it allocates a static buffer for them, and crashes if one turns
out to be unexpectedly large. Fixing that kind of issue may take time.
Keeping the option available gives operators the flexibility to update
their systems without breaking things in the meantime.

This isn't about defending every edge case as critical. It's just
about recognizing that once an option is removed, anyone who runs into
a problem is stuck. Leaving the setting in place for one more release,
even in a relaxed or discouraged state, gives people a fair chance to
adjust before it disappears.
