    The libraries design document was out of sync with the current bitcoinkernel implementation and its consumers. It claimed that libbitcoin_node links against libbitcoin_kernel and that the kernel library only depends on consensus, crypto, and util, which is not true for the current CMake targets.

    This has been discussed in #28690, which introduces a libbitcoin_kernel target. In the past the design doc was understood as a goal to work towards. I think we should finally decide whether to move forward with #28690, and if not, accept the changes you laid out here.
