- [Why doesn't the protocol allow unconfirmed transactions to expire at a given height?]({{bse}}116926)
178+
Larry Ruane references Satoshi on why it wouldn't be prudent for
179+
transactions to have the seemingly useful ability to specify an
180+
expiration height, that is, a height after which the transaction,
181+
if not yet mined, is no longer valid (and therefore can't be mined).
