+ // In general, when we receive an RBF transaction with mempool conflicts, we want to know whether we
+ // would meet the chain limits after the conflicts have been removed. However, there isn't a practical
+ // way to do this short of calculating the ancestor and descendant sets with an overlay cache of
+ // changed mempool entries. Due to both implementation and runtime complexity concerns, this isn't
+ // very realistic, thus we only ensure a limited set of transactions are RBF'able despite mempool
+ // conflicts here. Importantly, we need to ensure that some transactions which were accepted using
+ // the below carve-out are able to be RBF'ed, without impacting the security the carve-out provides
+ // for off-chain contract systems (see link in the comment below).
+ //
+ // Specifically, the subset of RBF transactions which we allow despite chain limits are those which
+ // conflict directly with exactly one other transaction (but may evict children of said transaction),
+ // and which are not adding any new mempool dependencies. Note that the "no new mempool dependencies"
+ // check is accomplished later, so we don't bother doing anything about it here, but if BIP 125 is
+ // amended, we may need to move that check to here instead of removing it wholesale.
+ //
+ // Such transactions are clearly not merging any existing packages, so we are only concerned with
+ // ensuring that (a) no package is growing past the package size (not count) limits and (b) we are
+ // not allowing something to effectively use the (below) carve-out spot when it shouldn't be allowed
+ // to.
+ //
+ // To check these we first check if we meet the RBF criteria, above, and increment the descendant
+ // limits by the direct conflict and its descendants (as these are recalculated in
+ // CalculateMempoolAncestors by assuming the new transaction being added is a new descendant, with no
+ // removals, of each parent's existing dependant set). The ancestor count limits are unmodified (as
+ // the ancestor limits should be the same for both our new transaction and any conflicts).
