Non-OP_RETURN scripts cost more CPU cycles and memory, that's the main difference. After network stress succeed, we need to stress test other hardwares, i.e. CPU, memory, bus and etc.
You mean it's harder to build them ? You can spend a week building them and spamming the network a single day Or do you mean the validation ?
I agree but that's not work that the spammer has to do, right ? (It was about BSV is easier to spam than bch) Hopefully software will improve and validation won't be an issue anymore !
That's part of the "harder", but my original point was also that because it's non-standard, there aren't any apps that can just do that in the hands of script kiddies.
And swiping a button 1400 times sounds a lot easier than swiping it 500,000 (although of course, one could outsource it to a click farm if determined).
You can program your computer to sign them all and he'll do that in few minutes (or more) I agree swiping 1400 is ridiculous but you can do without that. As you said it's just for fun
There are doing that for stress test I believe, they have programs and we get huge blocks But maybe you're right and it's hard to propagate lot of small txs instead of few big ones
