You can disagree with Core's decision on how to handle arbitrary data, but it was a consensus decision backed by over 30 developers after debate (including changes to Peter Todd's original submission). This pits one individual's vision against a collaborative group process.
But hey, it was fun while it lasted, wasn't it?
Not in disguise... Totally obvious and in the open
"but it was a consensus decision"
The move away from core in the last few months suggests you're incorrect.
"backed by over 30 developers"
Their opinions aren't really relevant at the end of the day.
