    """
    Total gas used in the block up to and including this transaction.
-    This is the gas used before refunds, used for block gas accounting.
+    This is the gas used after refunds, paid by the user.


Just to clarify, this field now contains this:

sum(tx.gas_used_before_refunds for tx in txs[:i]) + txs[i].gas_used_after_refunds

No. This is going to be

sum(tx.gas_used_after_refunds for tx in txs[:i]))

This is exactly how it was before EIP-7778. So essentially, EIP-7778 does not change the receipts themselves. (except the fact that block gas accounting will no longer be possible using just receipts)
