Hey Alyssa, Thanks for the KIP! I have a couple questions:
1. I might have missed it in the KIP, but could you clarify what happens when a pre-vote fails (i.e. a majority of voters reject the potential candidacy)? The transition descriptions only mention what happens if the prospective leader learns of a higher epoch. 2. Do you think the pretend epoch bump is necessary? Would it be simpler to change the prevote acceptance check to assert a greater than or equal epoch?
