#2761 introduced the ability for the HTLC sender to let a remote initiator dip into its reserve to unblock channels after a large splice. However, we relaxed that condition for all channels, even those that don't use splice. This creates compatibility issues with other implementations that are stricter than what the specification requires, and will force-close in those situations.
