The reason we have "toxic waste" with HTLCs is because we commit to the payment_hash directly inside the transaction scripts, so we need to remember all the payment_hash we've seen to be able to recreate the scripts (and spend the outputs, even if they are revoked). But with PTLCs, we commit to a payment_point outside of the scripts (in the adaptor signature that is exchanged), so we're able to recreate the scripts independently of the payment details! This also means that the payment_point never appears on-chain (which is good for privacy) whereas the payment_hash does appear on-chain for HTLCs. *_anchor: dust, who cares -- might be better if local_anchor used key = > revkey I don't think we can use revkey, this would prevent us from bumping the current remote commitment if it appears on-chain (because we don't know the private revkey yet if this is the latest commitment). Usually the remote peer should bump it, but if they don't, we may want to bump it ourselves instead of publishing our own commitment (where our main output has a long CSV). But as you already mentioned, who cares, it's dust and we don't even need it to CPFP the revoked commitment, we can use any other output since the revocation path isn't encumbered with a CSV 1.
