As I said, it's a new kind of pinning attack, distinct from other types of
pinning attack.

Often times that is true. But other times that is not true! I gave examples=
of
use-cases where being able to arbitrary add fees to transactions is harmful;
the onus is on you to argue why that is acceptable to burden those users wi=
th a
new class of attack.

"Must be able to deal with" is not the same thing as "Must be happy". While
those use-cases do have to deal with those exceptional cases happening
occasionally, it's harmful if an attacker can harass you by making those
exceptional cases happen frequently.
