+ * BIP 34, height in coinbase).  If we can assume BIP 30 then we know that any
+ * non-coinbase transaction we are adding to the UTXO must not already exist in
+ * the utxo unless it is fully spent.  Thus we can check only if it exists DIRTY
+ * at the current level of the cache, in which case it is not safe to mark it
+ * FRESH (b/c then its spentness still needs to flushed).  If it's not dirty and
+ * doesn't exist or is pruned in the current cache, we know it either doesn't
+ * exist or is pruned in parent caches, which is the definition of FRESH.  The
+ * exception to this is the two historical violations of BIP 30 in the chain,
