I think GLM 5.2 might have found this. See Poelstra's response in this github thread: . What if someone created a transaction with an OP_RETURN that has a pedersen commitment that has some big negative value? If it gets included in the balance equation, that can work *only if* the range proof is not attached to that output. See - this is the transaction at which people are saying there's a consensus split. View quoted note →
