Description

Header chain is not verified. Anyone could generate valid and high score header chain.
We should not read data from the header chain.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Begin by tracing where header-chain data is read and how Tendermint consensus supplies the corresponding information; done means the unverified header chain is no longer a source of data without breaking consensus behavior.
