Does dropping timestamp refer just to RCLTV or absolutely CLTV also? For
absolute CLTV I think it's important to have timestamps so that trust fund
use cases are practical (e.g. spendable on 18th birthday), because the
exact date a future block will be mined on is unpredictable if it's far
enough in the future (out by days or even weeks).
