Until now, a high weight invalid block can cause other valid, lower weight alternatives to be discarded. The solution to this problem is to track invalid blocks and quickly avoid them once discovered. This gives other valid alternative blocks the opportunity to become part of a valid chain, where they would otherwise have been discarded. As with the block minter update, this will cause a fork when the highest weight block candidate is invalid. But it is likely that the fork would be short lived, assuming that the majority of nodes pick the valid chain.
