I haven't encountered any of that kind of abuse in Matrix after it has been implemented. It partially nullifies the point of the room decentralization, though.
Some of the biggest public rooms like "Matrix HQ" are almost unusably slow, though, since they have tens of thousands zombie users.
Matrix performance feels now more or less adequate for all realistic use cases, as long as long-term idle users are pruned out every now and then from public rooms.

Their whole crusade against XMPP in Matrix early days was based on this distinction and overstating the importance and relevance of it. So I guess we are left with an absurdly complex protocol and single-source implementation for… nothing then?
