How do you deal with validity rules changing based on block height?

So it sounds like to work the software still needs an analog of a
(U)TXO database? I am confused by the earlier comments about thinking
the the resource consumption of the (U)TXO database is not a
consideration in your design.

If you get a transaction claiming to spend 0xDEADBEEFDEADBEEF, an
output that never existed how does your spent index reject this spend?
