[General] Account Abstraction Transaction Lifecycle - "The System" vs "The validator" vs "The node" vs "The sequencer"

Environment

Mainnet

Provide a brief description of the functionality you're trying to implement and the issue you are running into.

I'm looking to clarify something about the transaction lifecycle. of an account abstraction transaction, but probably also just all transactions.

When a transaction is sent to an RPC endpoint (any transaction, type 113 or other) who receives it? The sequencer is also all the validators as of today, so the sequencer/validator gets it? The documentation just calls it The system. Is The system a validator? The sequencer? Something else?

Yes that is correct.

The documentation just calls it The system. Is The system a validator? The sequencer? Something else?

The system is referring to the infra of the system overall. This is something that we could be more clear about and will work on in the docs.
