I don't think there's an official definition of SPV proof. I wasn't
trying to make a argument from definition (that would be fallacious!).
Rather I suspected that we had different concepts in mind and wanted to
check.
That said, I do think that the definition I gave matches how the term is
used

# Abstract
There are incentives for miners to find cheap, non-standard ways to generate
new work, which are not necessarily in the best interest of the protocol.
In order to reduce these incentives this proposal re-assigns 2

I'm not convinced of the necessity of this idea in general, but if it
were to be implemented I would recommend serializing the nVersion field
as a VarInt (Pieter Wuille's multi-byte serialization format) and using
the remaining space of the 4 bytes as your extra nonce.
That would allow

Disagree. Maybe we just have a fundamental disagreement
That moves us away from a pure trustless system built upon a small
democratic foundation (as something of a necessary evil in an imperfect

Agreed. I'm a pragmatist, certainly not anti-change (or even anti-zero-conf.)
Useful and non-controversial hard forks don't keep me awake at night :) I
