yes, the code itself was far less contentious than the weird stab at
forking the network

there remains a real chance that bip 119 is the simplest and most flexible
and reasonably safe covenant tech for many use cases

although im partial to 118 as well because lightning is a killer app and it
makes batch channels more efficient
