1. How does the proposal ensure that prioritizing local node operation doesn’t compromise Ethereum’s long-term scalability goals, particularly when increasing the L1 gas limit could exacerbate state growth and centralization pressures? 2. What are the specific trade-offs of unbundling full node responsibilities, and how might they impact the security and decentralization of the Ethereum network? 3. How does the proposal address the economic incentives for running local nodes, especially for non-technical users, given the increasing hardware and bandwidth demands? 4. What are the risks of relying on optimistic assumptions about hardware improvements or user adoption of stateless clients, and how might these assumptions fail under real-world conditions? 5. How does the proposal mitigate the potential for increased centralization in validation if the L1 gas limit increase pushes smaller validators toward relying on third-party infrastructure?
