📝 Original message:Seeing this on one of my public nodes:

That is abusive, taking up public slots. There is no reason to
connect so rapidly to the same node.

Other seeders are also rapidly reconnect'ers, though the time window
is slightly more wide:

version 60000, blocks=230000, us=162.219.2.72:8333, peer=11846

The version message helpfully tells me my own IP address but not theirs ;p
