If it's a self channel, E can also just RBF replace the close
transaction with a minimally-sized 1-input, 1-output transaction.

In addition, if typical mempools are full and the closing transaction
feerate is very low (i.e. because anchor outputs are meant to be used)
E may also be able to create a close transaction that will be
dropped from typical mempools in the near future and may never 
confirm, allowing E to continue using the channel in attacks against its
other peers.
