Not responding to anyone in particular, but it strikes me that one can
think about the case where a small minority (let's say H = 20%?) of nodes
select the opposite of what Core releases (LOT=false, LOT=true). I'm
ignoring the case where a critical bug is discovered in Taproot for reasons
I could
Just to clarify, I'm not saying bitcoin core should maintain the
"oppose proposal" part of the software. presumably people opposing the
change don't want much of the recent software changes anyway.
But perhaps it wouldn't be so bad, to oppose other proposals, perhaps.
I don't expect anyone to want
Sorry, I haven't read everything. I just want to say what I think is
the best option and why.
Let's say something like 2 years in which miners can signal activation
after which, the MUST signal it for their blocks to be valid (I think
this is LOT=true, but I don't remember what LOT stands for).

Headers that are invalid due to MUST_SIGNAL rules are marked as
BLOCK_RECENT_CONSENSUS_CHANGE so don't directly result in a ban. If you're
doing headers-first
Hello Everyone,
The below comment by Matt about different implementations and their opinion on
`lockinontimeout` is from 18 Feb 2021 communication:
