I realize I’m late with this request, but I propose changing the text of Question 5, Benefits, first bullet from:
- Confirmation latency drops ~3× (from 75 s to 25 s average for first confirmation))
-to:
- Gives users the option of ~3× faster confirmations (from 75 s to 25 s average for initial block confirmations) with a corresponding reduction of protection against rollbacks (from 75s of mining effort to 25s).
Lower latency for confirmation is a trade-off against rollback security, and a trade-off itself isn’t a pure benefit. The benefit is the choice it gives to users between the trade-off. IMO, it’s important to make trade-offs clear for anyone casting votes.
See my post on the shorter block time proposal for more detail.
