A double-spend by its nature implies creating coins out of nothing (spending same coin twice).
In no possible definition does this situation imply this...its literally a "failed double spend" (ie longest chain won)
Here is what happened.
Someone broadcast a TXN (T1)
Rebroadcast same TXN but with different fee amount (T2)
Simultaneously 2 competing pools solved PoW at same time
Pool1 confirmed T1
Pool2 confirmed T2
Pool1 won. T2 marked as invalid.
This is literally how Bitcoin is designed to work. There is no "error", there is no "oh no!". Its why people have always said "wait for a few confs before accepting it". The vigor that this story is being pushed makes me think its a FUD campaign.
