What happens in an optimistic cross chain bridge (like Across) if the source chain re-orgs? If L1 finality takes a few minutes, how is across able to get funds to destination chain faster than that? What happens if L1 re-orgs due to a soft fork and worst case the deposit never happened?

its just two relayers with asset pools on either side, nothing actually bridges Worst case scenario the relayer provider loses funds

rip - so they can lose an arbitrary amount of money if L1 re-orgs?
