Note to the reader: this exploit doesn't actually work due to RBF Rule #6.
tx_HS is considered to be a direct conflict, and its raw fee-rate does have
to be beat directly. While ts_HS does spend an unconfirmed output, it appears
that the fee-rate PaysMoreThanConflicts uses to calculate if ts_HS can be
beaten is ts_HS's raw fee-rate. So looks like your understanding was incorrect
on these two points.
