+I agree with pretty much everything you wrote except the above =
+paragraph.
+
+An attacker can create a transaction that would be valid if it were an =
+OP_NOP, but not valid if it were any more restrictive transaction. For =
+example, an attacker might send 1 BTC to an address with . An old node =
+would consider that OP_CLTV to be OP_NOP, so no signature is necessary =
+for old nodes. Then the attacker buys something from a merchant running =
+old node code or an SPV client, and spends the 1 BTC in that address in =
+a way that is invalid according to OP_CLTV but valid according to =
+OP_NOP, and includes a hefty fee. A miner on the old version includes =
+this transaction into a block, thereby making the block invalid =
+according to the new rules, and rejected by new-client miners. The =
+merchant sees the 1-conf, and maybe even 2-conf, rejoices, and ships. =
+The attacker then has until the OP_CLTV matures to double-spend the coin =
+with new nodes using a valid signature.
+
+Basically, it's trivial to create transactions that exploit the =
+difference in validation rules as long as miners are still on the old =
+version to mine them. Transactions can be created that are guaranteed to =
+be orphaned and trivially double-spendable. Attackers never have to risk =
+actual losses. This can be done as long as miners continue to mine =
+old-version blocks, regardless of their frequency.
+
+Those of you who know Script better than me: would this be an example of =
+a transaction that would be spendable with a valid sig XOR with (far =
+future date OR old code)?
