Simple answer: smart contracts are not smart!
Simple reason:
Although it is called a Smart Contract, it should be regarded as “determinism,” After the trigger condition is reached, it will automatically execute the contract that cannot be tampered with.
However, in real life, various reasons such as contract cancellation and invalidation may occur. In this case, the smart contract itself may not deal with it because it only runs strictly following the programmed code.
