How would they trigger false positives? The payee recovers the nonce
with ECDH from the payor's ephemereal pubkey and their online detection
secret key. They use BIP32 public derivation with their offline spending
pubkey(s), if the derived pubkeys match the actual scriptPubKey they
know the output is spendable by them. I don't see how that can go wrong.
