I understand that visiting an unvisited node is useful work, and that traversing an edge that points to a node visited via another edge in this same step results in more edges to traverse than necessary (so that additional edges pointing to the same node result in unnecessary work). Which of peers and valid parents are considered wasteful?

@cardiff, I think this slide means only claimed child is useful since those are what we want from the frontiers. So failed child, peer, and valid parent are all wasteful.
