Ethereum core developers have rejected EIP-7907, which aimed to dramatically expand contract size limits using a metering mechanism. The new direction is EIP-7954, set to be included in the Glamsterdam upgrade—this one caps the limit at 32kb, representing a 25% boost. It's less aggressive than initially hoped, but still a meaningful move forward. The shift shows the team is balancing ambition with pragmatism on scaling contract capabilities.

32kb is just 32kb, anyway it's better than before. Just worried they might change their mind again later...

32kb? Isn't that just staying in the same place? If you ask me, just go straight to 1mb.

If I hadn't been cut down to 32kb back then, I would be rich by now...

Why keep messing around? Why not just do it all in one step?
