My OpenTimestamps calendars all use RBF for optimal fee discovery. The fact=
is,
about 95% of OTS transactions mined are replacements rather than originals.=
I
also took a quick look, and found examples of replacements mined by Foundry
USA, AntPool, F2Pool, Binance Pool, ViaBTC, SlushPool, Luxor, MARA Pool, and
Poolin. That's at least 97.21% of all hashing power supporting opt-in RBF.
Are you claiming that almost all hashing power is irrational?

Electrum *literally* has an undo button, implemented with RBF. I've used it=
a
half dozen times, and it's worked every time.

Has anyone _ever_ implemented a node that rejects blocks containing
double-spends? I don't believe the code to reject such blocks even exists. =
Note
that it should: that's a terrible idea that could lead to sever consensus
problems.
