Or you could flip the definition of your activation bit. That would
avoid the inversion and put relative locktimes outside the realm of
both the MAX_INT and MAX_INT - 1 values.<br>
<br>
It would also allow an explicit relative locktime of 0, which would
help applications avoid accidentally finalizing the whole
transaction when they only meant to not impose a relative locktime
on one input.<br>

uses nSequence to specify relative locktime, but nSequence
also<br>

<br>
This dual effect will prevent a transaction from having an

to be mined<br>
at least one block (or one second) ahead of its parent.<br>
<br>
The fix is to shift the semantics so that nSequence =
MAX_INT - 1<br>
specifies 0 relative locktime, rather than 1. This change
will also<br>
preserve the semantics of transactions that have already
been created<br>
with the specific nSequence value MAX_INT - 1 (for example
all<br>
transactions created by the bitcoin core wallet starting in
0.11).<br>
