It can be used to retrieve transactions, but only if they are in the memory pool or relay set - arbitrary access to transactions in the chain is not allowed to avoid having clients start to depend on nodes having full transaction indexes (which modern nodes do not).

(trilema) ben_vulpes: as someone somewhere once said "i don't hire developers who spell well, i hire developers who mispell consistently."
(trilema) ben_vulpes: not that anyone should expect a "developer" to understand how to write english well - it's hard and takes a lot of dedicated study.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "pushed by" not "initiated by". furthermore, doesn't make the usage somehow acceptable.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "their" implies more than one party.

(trilema) ben_vulpes: "whole blockchain" << and more specifically, a trivial lookup of txids
(trilema) ben_vulpes: *entirely* different project
(trilema) ben_vulpes: raw transactions
(trilema) ben_vulpes: say i have the transaction hash (aka txid) and output index - how do i get the pubkey those coins were sent to?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: how do i get the pubkey for a given output?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: a user-supplied privkey.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: (one can sign anything at any time - that's not the problem. the problems crop up in a) knowing the sigs are valid and b) the multi-input, multi-privkey transaction generation use-case: how am i to know which privkeys are to be used to sign which inputs, and furthermore [and somewhat recursively] how do i know those signatures to be valid?)
(trilema) ben_vulpes: danielpbarron: make sense?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: otherwise you just sign hash of txn, index in txn, and have no way to double check that you produced a valid signature corresponding to the pubkey to which those funds were transmitted originally.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: to verify that you've created a valid transaction, you have to have the entirety of the previous output on hand to examine the public key
(trilema) ben_vulpes: to use the modern txn api, yeah
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i don't know that a bitcoind would be able to verify a transaction without access to the full inputs
(trilema) ben_vulpes: while this isn't *strictly* necessary, it's how things work now.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: creating a raw transaction requires having the previous transaction in hand in full at runtime, so as to extract the pubkey from the previous transaction
(trilema) ben_vulpes: far easier for the people working on it at the time to make some silly assumptions about what txns a user would want to sign, and then keep those txns on hand
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i'm starting to see some of the rationale behind the wallet paradigm - creating transactions for signing requires being able to retrieve arbitrary transactions from the blockchain
(trilema) ben_vulpes: tx backport archaeology's an interesting thing
(trilema) ben_vulpes: probably want to decouple bot from funding actions
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i don't really know how the transmission of btc is supposed to work for the thing
