Documents how the log index and the receiptless archive variant interact, following a question from the team. Verified against the code rather than assumed:
RegeneratingReceiptFinderdecorates the RPC read path only.LogIndexBuilderreads receipts throughIReceiptStorage, so for a block whose receipt write was skipped it gets nothing and stops advancing at that height - it stalls rather than leaving a silent gap in the index.IndexedLogFinderfalls back to the bloom-scan path, which re-executes every candidate block, bloom false positives included.So
Receipt.DeriveFromStateandLogIndex.Enabledare not mutually exclusive by configuration, but the index is inert exactly where receipts are absent - worth stating so nobody enables both and expects fasteth_getLogs.Follow-up to #356.
