I am aware of that proposal. It is not a proposal with "significant discussion
and analysis", your link, [2], has three posts in total, with discussion ending
in Febuary, with only the OP having any significant content. Both replies to
the idea noted potential incompatibilites with existing implementations. I'm
not aware of any running code nor any significant discussion amongst LN
implementations and other stakeholders. The idea hasn't even been posted to
this mailing list.

That's why I never brought it up: the idea seems to have died out.

Frankly, unless you can point to actual "significant discussion and analysis"
of the idea, it's dishonest and toxic of you to portray it as such as you
should know better. RBFR has had more "significant discussion and analysis"
than this idea in this very thread.

Personally, I think it might not be an unreasonable hack before something
better like RBFR gets implemented. But it's only a hack. And if anything, it
strongly suggests that actually permanently specifying TRUC/V3 is an
unnecessary complication.
