The email discusses the purpose of anchor outputs and questions their necessity beyond increasing fees.
The sender mentions that if the full fee range has been pre-signed, there would be no need for anchor outputs. They argue that under any circumstance, a transaction with a sufficiently high fee can be broadcasted to ensure it gets mined.
However, the email does not provide any further details or explanations regarding anchor outputs or their potential uses other than increasing fees. It simply raises the question and presents an alternative perspective on their necessity.
