There are 3 ways through which main.cpp (and by extension, the
getrawtransactionand REST tx lookup) find transactions:This third option is confusing because the conditions under which it works are complicated, and can make it seem like it always works even without -txindex. Remove it. If you need to call
getrawtransactionfor confirmed transactions, you almost certainly need -txindex.This only impacts the
getrawtransactionand REST tx calls, so document those.
