How to Close a Lightning Payment Channel ~ Bitcoin to the Max

There is a possibility of irreparable differences on closing if one node considers the other's output too small to allow propagation on the Bitcoin network (a.k.a. "dust"), and that other node instead considers that output too valuable to discard. This is why each side uses its own dust_limit_satoshis, and the result can be a signature validation failure, if they disagree on what the closing transaction should look like.
