So could the developer's mistake/error/system test be duplicated a lot at a low cost?

Developers have the testnet availale to test and prevent those errors.

Is that what you asked or i understand it wrong?

I am asking if this is a way to attack the actual block chain at a low cost.

As I understand it the block mined was not valid. Some one managed to spend out of order Tx an and Tx b. So the block was rejected by the block chain.

I am asking could this be done more often and harm the blockchain.

As it is a pool lost a block with bad info in it.

so if the blockchain is flooded with this style of info more and more invalid blocks can appear.

So A can this be done at a high rate killing off lots of blocks found as invalid?

and B is it cheap to do it?

Has someone stumbled of a way to make an invalid block and are they super rare.
