Marco points out that if the parent is RBF, this child inherits it, so we're actually good here. However, Matt Corallo points out that you can block RBF will a large-but-lowball tx, as BIP 125 points out: will be replaced by a new transaction...: 3. The replacement transaction pays an absolute fee of at least the sum paid by the original transactions. I understand implementing a single mempool requires these kind of up-front decisions on which tx is "better", but I wonder about the consequences of dropping this heuristic? Peter? Thanks! Rusty.
