## have a corresponding entry in database.

## All blocks identified by a `BlockRef` are valid per the state transition
## rules and that at some point were candidates for head selection. The
## ChainDAG offers stronger guarantees: it only returns `BlockRef` instances
## that are rooted in the currently finalized chain - however, these
## guarantees are valid only until the next head update - in particular,
## they are not valid across `await` calls.
##
## Block graph forms a tree - in particular, there are no cycles.
