Innovation vs Physics in Blockchain Networks

In blockchain networks, while innovation like data availability, sampling, and light clients are unique and important, the performance and throughput are ultimately constrained by the capabilities of full nodes. Celestia's innovation lies in light clients and data availability sampling, which do not directly increase network throughput. However, the increase in light clients can lead to upgrading full node hardware, thereby potentially improving throughput. On the other hand, traditional high-throughput chains emphasize the significance of light clients for data availability and sampling.
