I think the issue I have here is the lack of `OP_CSV` in the settlement branch.

Consider a channel with offchain transactions update-1, settlement-1, update-2, and settlement-2.
If update-1 is placed onchain, update-1 is also immediately spendable by settlement-1.
But settlement-1 cannot be spent by update-2 and thus the invalidation of older state fails.

The `OP_CSV` in the settlement branch of the update transaction outputs exists to allow later update transactions have higher priority over settlement transactions.

To ensure that a settlement signature can only take the settlement branch, we need a distinct public key for the branch, so at least `A_s` and `B_s` without rolling them for each `i`, if we use `nLockTime` on the settlement transactions and enforce it with `OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY`.
It might be possible to do this with `OP_CODESEPARATOR`, but we do need the `OP_CSV` in the settlement branch.

Regards,
ZmnSCPxj
