πͺ Vitalik Buterin suggested creating separate "shelves" for different data types for Ethereum, so that the network doesn't store everything in one general heap.
For example, private transactions create a huge number of records that cannot simply be deleted, and over time this can significantly inflate the blockchain.
The new approach should help Ethereum process more operations in parallel, scale more easily, and not turn into a network that only super-expensive servers can support.
