Am I crazy to want to know everything about my bitcoin transaction when I create it? Like, I want to look at the raw transaction hex and maybe even a bit field to be absolutely certain the transaction is going to do what I want it to do…

I mean, it would be a damn shame to lock your bitcoins away for 9,000 years (which you could do if you were relying on a time locked transaction as a seedless recovery option if you’re not careful).
