I don't know what your claim of "likely" is based on, but it's certainly po=

r.

Here's a non-standard OP_RETURN mined by Eligius, not a pubco, in 2013:

f910ead8fbe85bc9b

One example is just an anecdote of course, perhaps you could present data t=
hat shows older industry players hardly mine non-standard transactions.

> Finally, I don=E2=80=99t see any compelling reason for a change in OP_RET=
URN policy or configurability.  I speak to a lot of other miners as well an=
d I don=E2=80=99t know of one a single one that feels any change is benefic=
ial to them now.  =20

It's not beneficial to large miners. They benefit from centralisation. It's=
 good for them to offer paid services that bypass standardness.
