Hmm, that's not the difference I was talking about. I was referring to the fact 
that using "post-chainsplit coinbases from the non-148 chain" to unilaterally 
(ie. can be done without action on the 148-chain) taint coins is more secure in 
extreme-adverserial cases such as secret-mining reorg attacks (as unfeasibly 
expensive they may be); the only large-scale (>100 block) reorganization the 
non-148 chain faces should be a resolution of the chainsplit and therefore 
render the replay threat moot.

You keep referring to 148 coinbase coins, what is the rationale behind this? 
Why would you prefer using 148 coinbases over legacy coinbases for this purpose?

OK, maybe "post-UASF coinbase coins" is a better term? I just wanted to make it 
clear that this refers to coins that come from blocks generated after the UASF 
is activated.
