I think it's not easily generalized. If there is a bidding battle and the 2nd highest bidder is very close to winning bid, I agree that it should default to them.
If it is like in this instance 0.03 then 0.04 - that's quite some room where other bids (from a 3rd bidding party) might have happened without the 0.04 bid.
That being said:
SunnyBwoy (underbidder) is willing to pay winning bid amount... looks like an easy call imo
In this case 100% agreed.

I would be willing to take his offer thank you.

100% agree. That's why I made my decision like this.
I also think that the bid of the final winner may have scared off some bidders because it was a significant jump. If the second highest bid had been close to it, I would have accepted it.

This looks confusing at first. He offered me his final bid (0.03 BTC instead of the winning bid of 0.04) again.
