Oh, I see that technically there are two kinds of connections that could be started: the seed nodes only situation, when the peers database is empty, and then you have the ordinary start procedure where you have a nonempty peers database already, in which case you want to talk to peers from the peers db first and foremost but I guess traversing the seed nodes to wouldn’t be absolutely disallowed. Does LB have any differentiation in respect of auto-reconnect behavior, between these two? I’m contemplating if full_node.start() doesn’t work out then just, after a timer expires, just run it again.. sounds like a plan?
