Is there any evidence that diverging clients (core vs knots) can cause an accidental hardfork?

I’ve seen claims that it can and that it cannot but no good evidence either way. #asknostr hashtag AskTheDevs

No, not accidentally.

Thank you. It sounds wrong. But I really am not qualified to make the determination. So looking to those who know and/or have evidence (one way or another).

No worries 🤗

You can definitely do it on purpose tho 😅

Example: book size war's and BSV.

If you come core and knots to accept bigger blocks then the blocks you, and miners on your standard, are mining will not be recognized by the older network.
