In r/ethereum, developers argue the real scaling bottleneck is off chain state reading, where EVM tracing, RPC load, and indexing requirements push hidden hardware and cost burdens onto teams and the ecosystem.
The true bottleneck in Ethereum dApp architecture isn't just on-chain gas, it's the off-chain infrastructure required to read the state.
When protocols are designed without considering how data is indexed, they force massive hardware and cost requirements onto the ecosystem.
Standard contract-to-contract ETH transfers (`call{value: x}()`) don't emit logs.
