In the snowflake algorithms, there is the following comment: // terminationConditions[i].alphaConfidence < terminationConditions[i+1].alphaConfidence // terminationConditions[i].beta <= terminationConditions[i+1].beta However, the two lines contradict, as if alpha confidence grows with i, then beta should decrease and not increase. The reason is that the higher our confidence, the less consecutive polls we need to finalize. Signed-off-by: Yacov Manevich <yacov.manevich@avalabs.org>
