I'm not familiar with taproot in-depth but I also don't see it as
significantly related to privacy.

There's enough research out there to make bitcoin networks very, very
anonymous, in ways that are normalised and maintainable and simplify the
codebase.

Software was different before 2014, and that shows in the design of
lightning.  The bitcoin devs got split into factions etc.  It's recorded
history.

There's been a lot of excitement over the lightning network in some groups
of people.  Who uses it?  What is it used for, in the wild?

Anyway, it's cool to see that bitcoin's dev process has found ways to
continue innovating and it seems to be building on that more and more.
