I think due to many emerging "real-time blockchains", in order to align the metrics and make them comparable, we need to introduce blockspace-time.
In this new definition, blockspace is about inclusion and is indeed a commodity in the context of one chain, the price of which depends on the overall supply/demand ratio.
The time component would be about the placement: either a position in a big block, or an inter-block position on quicker chains.
I just came up with this concept but it seems to be surprisingly versatile across different chains and solutions (Solana's shreds, flashblocks, MegaEth preconfs, TOOL, etc.)
Would love if someone can help me strengthen this idea or scrap it by providing good counter arguments.

@mostlyblocks @kapursanat Forgot to mention about Arbitrum's time-boost which also perfectly aligns with this concept.
@mostlyblocks @kapursanat P.S. it's not like it's new idea of mine (and wouldn't be surprised if someone voiced that before also), but I spent lots of brain cycles thinking about blockspace pricing model for TOOL, so I can pull lots of ideas from that cache haha
