 If a Bundle succeeds (in D2), it "becomes" an M6 message and is included in a block.

 From one block to the next, "ACKs" can only change as follows:
 
 * The ACK-counter of any Bundle can only change by (-1,0,+1).
-* Within a sidechain-group, upvoting one Bundle ("+1") requires you to downvote all other Bundles in that group. However, the minimum ACK-value is zero.

 M4 does not need to be explicitly transmitted. It can simply be inferred from the new state of D2. M4 can therefore be improved over time, without affecting consensus.
