-         * - "the LVH is unknown" - simply throw and move on. We can't determine which chain to invalidate
-         *   since we don't know which ancestor is valid.
+         *     i) buggy: that the LVH was not really the parent of the invalid block, but on
+         *        some side chain
+         *     ii) lazy: that invalidation was result of simple check and the EL just

-         * - "the LVH doesn't exist" - this means that the entire ancestor chain is invalid, and should
-         *   be marked as such.
-         *
-         * The more robust approach is to treat nullish LVH as "the LVH is unknown" rather than
-         * "the LVH doesn't exist". The alternative means that we will poison a valid chain when the
-         * EL is lazy (or buggy) with its LVH response.
