A third-party PR for experimental @RaspiBlitz support has been submitted.

We can do this once the temporary one (which is a bit blunt) expires.

I think it is less urgent than "emergency", but more urgent than something we should wait 18 months to do.

After much discussion and consideration, I have decided to remove the reactive deployment method and the legal/moral motivations from the BIP document.

I still think those things are important and the reactive deployment may become necessary in an emergency, but I want to continue building consensus and those features were hampering progress.

I hope to have the new draft ready in the next day or two.

Thanks to everyone for your support so far.

Claims of confiscation are just FUD. A competent person tried to find an example of a TXO that could be confscated by BIP444 and came up with nothing. But to be completely sure, I'm adding a UTXO height check in the next draft of the BIP.
