will there be payee and payer that are the same with a transaction?

hi team, will there be payee and payer that are the same with a transaction？ Now I've found similar transactions on other networks，e.g. CELO,TIA

Each block contains a large number of such transactions，I worry that XRP will have similar problems

[xiongjiabing]

And these transactions are very small

You cannot send a Payment transaction to yourself.

Indeed; as I was looking to answer this issue I found that this is enforced in preflight, so the check is very cheap to do. However I also noticed that there's no unit test for this check, will add it.

Test added in https://github.com/XRPLF/rippled/pull/4860

I think you can send a payment transaction to yourself as long as it crosses offers (currency conversion) and the sent currency does not equal the receiving currency.

That's true, but it requires a path, hence involvement of other accounts.

No changes in regard to this issue are planned in the future.
