-### Core L1 Smart Contracts
-
-Below you'll find an architecture diagram describing the core L1 smart contracts for the OP Stack.
-Smart contracts that are considered "peripheral" and not core to the operation of the OP Stack system are described separately.

-#### Notes for Core L1 Smart Contracts
-
-- The `Batch Data Address` described above (**highlighted in GREY**) is *not* a smart contract and is instead simply an arbitrarily chosen account that is assumed to have no known private key. This account is typically chosen as the account `0xFF0000....` where `` is chain ID of the Layer 2 network for which the data is being posted. For instance, for OP Mainnet, this account is chosen as `0xFF00000000000000000000000000000000000010`. However, this is not a strict requirement and some OP Stack chains may not follow this convention.
-- Smart contracts that sit behind `Proxy` contracts are **highlighted in BLUE**. Refer to the [Smart Contract Proxies](#smart-contract-proxies) section below to understand how these proxies are designed.
- - The `L1CrossDomainMessenger` contract sits behind the [`ResolvedDelegateProxy`](https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/optimism/tree/develop/packages/contracts-bedrock/src/legacy/ResolvedDelegateProxy.sol) contract, a legacy proxy contract type used within older versions of the OP Stack. This proxy type is used exclusively for the `L1CrossDomainMessenger` to maintain backwards compatibility.
- - The `L1StandardBridge` contract sits behind the [`L1ChugSplashProxy`](https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/optimism/tree/develop/packages/contracts-bedrock/src/legacy/L1ChugSplashProxy.sol) contract, a legacy proxy contract type used within older versions of the OP Stack. This proxy type is used exclusively for the `L1StandardBridge` contract to maintain backwards compatibility.

-#### Notes for Core L2 Smart Contracts
-
-- Contracts highlighted as "L2 System Contracts" are updated or mutated automatically as part of the chain derivation process. Users typically do not mutate these contracts directly, except in the case of the `FeeVault` contracts where any user may trigger a withdrawal of collected fees to the pre-determined withdrawal address.
-- Smart contracts that sit behind `Proxy` contracts are **highlighted in BLUE**. Refer to the [Smart Contract Proxies](#smart-contract-proxies) section below to understand how these proxies are designed.
-- User interactions for the "L2 Bridge Contracts" have been omitted from this diagram but largely follow the same user interactions described in the architecture diagram for the [Core L1 Smart Contracts](#core-l1-smart-contracts).
-
-### Smart Contract Proxies
-
-Most L1 and L2 smart contracts for OP Stack chains today sit behind `Proxy` contracts that themselves are managed by a `ProxyAdmin` contract.
-The `ProxyAdmin` contract is controlled by some `owner` address that can be any EOA or smart contract.
-Below you'll find a diagram that explains the behavior of the typical proxy contract.

-```mermaid
-graph LR
- ProxyAdminOwner(Proxy Admin Owner)

- ProxyAdmin -->|upgrades| Proxy
