CLTV is absolute locktime. Only CSV will have the =E2=80=9Ctime =
ticking=E2=80=9D issue, but that=E2=80=99s not used here. The required =
locktime <s> is many years in the past. To collaboratively close, you =

I think the use of OP_CSV (BIP112) is not needed here (although it =
doesn=E2=80=99t really harm except taking a few more bytes). All you =
need is to sign the settlement tx with a BIP68 relative locktime. Since =
this is a 2-of-2 branch, both parties need to agree with the relative =
locktime, so it is not necessary to restrict it through OP_CSV

I believe you confused OP_CSV (BIP112) with BIP68. Relative locktime is =
enforced by BIP68 (i.e. setting the nSequence). OP_CSV indirectly =
enforces relative-locktime by checking the value of nSequence. BIP68 =
could work standalone without OP_CSV, while OP_CSV is dependant on =
BIP68. In the case of n-of-n eltoo state update, OP_CSV is not needed =
because all n parties need to agree with the same nSequence value of the =
settlement tx. This is enough to make sure the settlement tx has delayed =
settlement.

Sure. This is obvious.

Collaborative close is always simple as I explained in the beginning

If no one is cheating (i.e. only the last update is broadcast), you =
always need only 3 txs. Think about this: every update tx could be a =
trigger tx, and you can settle directly on a trigger tx, so effectively =
you eliminate trigger tx.
