Updating the size of OP_RETURN to support a hash (or two), a signature, and maybe a few more bytes for metadata, would be very helpful in a number of scenarios. It is still a limit but a reasonable one. Otherwise, I think we'll have a lot more inscription-style scenarios.

I wouldn't be against an increase in OP_RETURN but I don't think it will make any difference in how often inscription-style use cases will be used. They will be used primarily for much larger datasets than, say 120 bytes, and they also have the segwit discount.
