[BUG]: spammers get Bitcoin blockspace at discounted price. Let's fix it

if you want to do it without screwing over the normal users of bitcoin, and only make disproportionate use of witness space less competitive:

WUtx = 4·size(tx_data|segwit_data) - 3·min(3·size(tx_data), size(segwit_data))

however most of the spam is brc-20 and that already would not be significantly affected. in the future alternative assets likely will be either using runes or rgb. they can get a lot more efficient with block space. you won’t likely achieve anything with this approach.
