Description
The MCR.sol contract presents a feature that allows to slash the stake of minority attesters during a block commitment proposal. However the actual line of code asking the staking contract to slash the stake is commented out. This can be an overlook from the developers and is reported informationally as such.
The minority being allowed to go against the consensus without losses can incentivize them to pursue their fraudulent activity, potentially harming the protocol and the users, committing bad blocks to the layer 1.
