The particular pattern I noticed in that log file is that we first get an eth_estimateGas that fails with transaction reverted. Then we get an intrinsic gas too low error submitting the transaction itself. Finally, we start getting future transaction replaces pending errors for subsequent attempts.

This may be partly a geth bug where an intrinsic gas too low transaction doesn't reset something properly in the transaction pool state—I haven't found such a bug reported, and I'm not sure, just one hypothesis.

However, we should never submit a transaction to the chain that triggers intrinsic gas too low as an error. I'm wondering if something is happening when we get a transaction revert under eth_estimateGas in some cases that is causing us to set the gas values lower than what we know to be correct (based on base fee or block fee).
