Not really. The main issue seems to be that part of the community doesn't want quotes in Kind 1 events (the text posts themselves) that are not other Kind 1 events (other posts). In their mind, for Nostr to stay simple you can only cite events of the same kind.
This for me breaks the entire idea of event composability of Nostr, like having a Poll as a quote of a regular post or being able to report a like.
NIP-94 offers a way to add an image to Kind 1s via a Quote. The kind 1 event will include a Kind 1063 event, which has a URL field that can then be previewed in the post. So, instead of a direct URL, the client has to load the quote first and then the URL.
Since most clients already load quoted notes, it's not really hard to load a kind 1063 and get the URL. But because it's a different event, they are fighting against it.
My push for NIP 94 is simple. All static content inside a Kind 1 event must be immutable (hashed or signed). Otherwise, as we scale, static content servers will be the target of attacks. The idea is that if you can't change what somebody said, you can change the image they linked and completely reverse the idea of the post.
Image servers we use today can also go evil at any point in time. They can serve ads in videos or watermark pictures by changing the linked file itself.
It might not be a problem for now, but as we scale up, we will see more and more of these issues.
