In Ethereum's evolution towards scalability via rollups and layer 2 solutions, block creation duties are increasingly outsourced from proposers (validators) to external block "builders."

However, restricting the protocol to enabling only one type of exchange may not serve proposers optimally across the diverse spectrum of potential duties they could offload.
