Lyza: our signatures would work with the cooperative case of taproot, the issue is, the cooperative case only works because there exists the non-cooperative case where you disclose the script and enforce it anyway, thus better settle for cheaper privately. Monero can't support the non-cooperative case, thus it can't work.

It is not taproot related but schnorr makes things like adaptor signatures really easy which allow for some form script

however, the same way you can do adaptor sigs using ecdsa and not requiring schnorr, you can do adaptor sigs on clsag and don't need schnorr per se

we are doing some research on that front atm

ty <zkao> that's a very clear explanation
