Well, frankly I really don't like the idea of using OP_2 just to avoid changing some unit tests. We're doing something that many people will use for years to come, that's unnecessarily obscure just because we don't want to spend a bit of some modifying some tests to pass. OP_TRUE is the obvious way to do this, and it results with a 1 on the stack, which plays better with other standardness rules. OP_2 means we *also* may need to special case having a 2 on the stack in certain implementations of other standardness rules. -- https://petertodd.org 'peter'[:-1]@petertodd.org
