I noticed that the eth_estimateGas method’s Block field is specified to only accept a block number or tag (i.e. “latest”, etc.). However, other related methods (specifically eth_call) are also specified to take a block hash. eth_estimateGas seems like the odd-method-out in this regard and I was wondering if this was intentional or an oversight from when more methods transitioned to accepting block hashes as parameters.

FWIW, experimentally nodes seem to accept block hashes for eth_estimateGas.
