blocks/headers form a single tree (common root/genesis). The height indexes are merely a path (branch) through the tree.

What is LB’s policy actually: LB will *not* store to persistence a block header for which the parent is not known on the persistence, is it? What about blocks, can LB store to persistence a block where the *block header* of the parent is on persistence but *not* the block of the parent?

We store no orphans (unparented data).
