So i was studying through Dusk's consensus rules and found something that seemed random at first but actually makes a lot of sense once you think about it. Here's the setup in Dusk each iteration has its own block generator, the person who proposes the block and its own voting committee that checks if that block is good or not and i would think anyone eligible could just vote in any iteration but Dusk blocks one specific group from voting whoever is set to be the generator in the next iteration.
At first i thought why block them? They're still a normal provisioner. But then i got it. If that future generator could vote right now, they'd have a reason to vote against the current block because if this block fails, the job and the reward roll over to them next round. That's a straight up conflict of interest.
Vote no get paid later So Dusk just removes the temptation. No vote no reason to sabotage. It's a small rule but it's doing real work. It keeps generators focused on their own turn instead of gaming someone else's. And honestly that's the kind of detail that shows whether a network actually thought about incentives or just copied a template. Dusk isn't Ostentatious about this stuff. But little rules like this are why i keep reading Dusk's docs instead of just their marketing.
