Knowing that a transaction is property formatted and that it has been
broadcast to the gossip network is useful in many situations. You're only
thinking about whether you can know a transaction is valid and/or settled.
This is not the only possible useful information in actual real world use.
Any situation where credit card transactions are accepted today for
instance, it is useful to know that a transaction has been initiated, even
though it can be reversed at any time up to 60 days later.

Unconfirmed transactions are incredibly important for real world<br>
use. Merchants for instance are willing to accept credit card<br>
payments of thousands of dollars and ship the goods despite the fact<br>
that the transaction can be reversed up to 60 days later. There is a<br>
very large cost to losing the ability to have instant transactions<br>
in many or even most situations. This cost is typically well above<br>
the fraud risk.<br>
<br>
It&#39;s important to recognize that bitcoin serves a wide variety of<br>
use cases with different profiles for time sensitivity and fraud<br>
risk.<br>
