holy holy v30 fans making banned core versions the top one
holy holy arbitrary blobs in taproot witnesses

honest question about core security:
why are we comfortable with arbitrary blobs in taproot witnesses going through a C++ parser on every validating node?
a crafted tapscript, a single parser bug, shellcode sitting in the same witness, and every node running bitcoind is a target.

as somebody said in 2010 "an accident waiting to happen" 🤔
