  "summary": "Extracts block download scheduling and tracking state from PeerManagerImpl and CNodeState into a new BlockDownloadManager module using the pimpl pattern. Rewires approximately 150 call sites across net_processing.cpp to the new class without altering existing cs_main synchronization semantics. Adds comprehensive unit tests and a dedicated fuzz harness exercising the new module boundary.",
  "problem": "net_processing.cpp and PeerManagerImpl combine transaction relay, block download, headers sync, and compact block management into a single ~6200 line monolith, making block download logic difficult to test or fuzz in isolation without standing up the full node networking stack.",

    "Crypt-iQ questioned whether decomposing PeerManagerImpl into separate classes adds unnecessary indirection compared to trimming CNodeState directly as in #35561.",

It addresses the ongoing maintenance burden of net_processing.cpp by following the decomposition pattern previously used for TxDownloadManager in #30110. While sedited and 0xbrito provided Concept ACKs, reviewers Crypt-iQ and maflcko expressed mild architectural skepticism regarding added indirection while cs_main locking remains unchanged. The PR is currently dirty and requires a rebase against master before review can continue."
