People often assume Luke meaning things that he didn’t actually meant or implied. I’ve noticed he’s keen on explaining things more clearly if you ask nicely. Not advocating for him. Just my obse...
to be fair he was the only one who even raised the lack of hash on the signature. and considering who was paying poelstra who straight up lied about the quantum vulnerability... andy back on the island. doing his job compromising bitcoin.
there is no monetary use for taproot. almost immediately its underspecified witness push was abused. bitcoin lost credibility out of this. back and lopp both were instrumental in this. taproot is an attack. and so is CTV, another pet project of andy's spook front that nobody is speaking against enough.
we could have CTs using bulletproofs but instead we are reeling from taproot. schnorr signatures were what we should have had instead of segwit. peter wuille proved that you can verify them fast, just nobody had the algo ready in 2017.
