Bitcoin Core's standardness rules aim to mitigate DoS attacks, allow upgrades, and deter bad practices.
Developers, like those behind Clementine, create workarounds to standardness rules, showing the system's adaptability.
Proposals suggest removing OP_RETURN restrictions to prevent counterproductive outcomes and deter unwanted practices.
