error in distance from tip for unconfirmed transaction

[dooglus]

Here's an unconfirmed transaction paying ~42 sat/vB, and a screenshot of Johoe's mempool stats site showing that there are around 2 vMB above it in the pool. The explorer claims it is 0.0 vMB from the tip, but that it will take 144 blocks to confirm:

I understand that it's next to impossible to estimate the ETA without a crystal ball, but the depth in the pool should be calculable pretty easily.

I checked 5 more low-fee unconfirmed transactions at random and all 5 of them were showing "in 144 blocks (0.00 vMB from tip)" as the ETA.

It's a known bug that was recently fixed by Blockstream/electrs@baee77b, which will go live with the next deployment. I'll try to make sure that happens soon. Cheers and thanks for the bug report!
