=== Why is it important to keep the packet fixed sized at all times?
As we have already discussed earlier in the chapter, the "onion" packet transmitted via the routing nodes has multiple layers.
The packet starts at sender of the payment and reaches the first routing node, who peels off the first layer.
The packet starts at the sender of the payment and reaches the first routing node, who peels off the first layer.
This layer gives it information about the payment being transmitted, such as who is the next routing node to pass it to.
It then passes this packet to the second routing note, who peels off the second layer, and so on until the final routing node (i.e. the recipient of the payment) is reached.
