Review Feedback

Summary: This is a clean refactoring that removes an unnecessary method override. The change is correct and safe.

Code Quality: ✅ Good

The removed evm_with_env method (crates/block/src/config.rs:253-255) was simply forwarding to self.evm_factory().create_evm(db, evm_env), which is exactly what the default trait implementation does. Removing redundant code improves maintainability.

Changes Analyzed:

1. Removed method: evm_with_env<DB: Database> - 8 lines removed
2. Removed imports: alloy_evm::Database, EvmFactory, EvmFor - no longer needed
3. Cargo.lock: Dependency updates appear to be automatic lockfile adjustments from the removal

Correctness: ✅ Verified

• The ConfigureEvm trait likely provides a default implementation of evm_with_env that does exactly what the removed code did
• The evm_factory field is still accessible via self.evm_factory() (line 61)
• No other code in the repository calls evm_with_env explicitly on TaikoEvmConfig

Potential Issues: None found

• No bugs introduced
• No breaking changes for external users
• Trait contract still satisfied by default implementation

Performance: Neutral

No performance impact - default trait implementation should be identical.

Security: No concerns

This is a pure refactoring with no security implications.

Test Coverage: ⚠️ Limited

The crates/block module has minimal test coverage (only one basic factory creation test in factory.rs:165-171). However, this specific change doesn't require new tests since:

1. It removes code rather than adding functionality
2. The default trait behavior is being used
3. Integration tests should already cover EVM creation paths

Recommendation: Approve and merge. This is a good cleanup that reduces code duplication.
