📝 Original message:Apparently I don't have the same experience than others here, what I
encountered is no reject message received for wrong txs, but from what I
understand here it's not unusual to receive reject message for valid
txs, then I don't see how it can be really helpful/relied, given also
that the reject messages are unclear and even can be misleading

As it was written already I found it useful only for debugging purposes,
at least it can give some kind of ideas about what happened,
bitcoin-transactions is implementing the bitcoin protocol but does not
act as a node and does not pretend to fake a node behavior waiting for
example to get the tx back, is the method of sending a getdata for a
given tx to see if it was accepted by a node wrong ? It can't guarantee
100% that it was successful and will propagate but I see that you are
doing completely different things
