// edge-case detected on GSF5 - during the transition we want to try process all transition blocks from CL client
// The last condition: !parentBlockInfo.IsBeaconBody will be true for terminal blocks. Checking _posSwitcher.IsTerminal might not be the best, because we're loading parentHeader with DoNotCalculateTotalDifficulty option
bool forceProcessing = !_poSSwitcher.TransitionFinished && (_blockTree.Head?.Number ?? 0) + 8 >= block.Number && !parentBlockInfo.IsBeaconBody;

We're using 8 here too: https://github.com/NethermindEth/nethermind/blob/master/src/Nethermind/Nethermind.Facade/Eth/EthSyncingInfo.cs#L37

I should change this condition bool weAreCloseToHead = (_blockTree.Head?.Number ?? 0) + 8 >= block.Number;

public bool ValidateSeal(BlockHeader header, bool force) =>
_poSSwitcher.IsPostMerge(header) || _preMergeSealValidator.ValidateSeal(header, force);
public bool ValidateSeal(BlockHeader header, bool force) =>
_poSSwitcher.GetBlockConsensusInfo(header, true).IsPostMerge || _preMergeSealValidator.ValidateSeal(header, force);

qq: why we don't check the seal if it is post merge?

It is PoW specific thing, so we don't have it post merge

What if there are two terminal block and the lower one appear later? I assume it must go through NP?

If terminal block appears later that shouldn't be block choosen by CL clients to build chain on top of it. However, in this case we will get NP(childOfTerminalBlock) we will return SYNCING and we should be able to catch up with MergeBlockDownloader
