Research direction

Reproduce the supplied taproot descriptor using CovExt and inspect the validation path that emits “All spend paths must require a signature.” Determine whether the introspection-only branch is intentionally rejected; completion would require a confirmed expected behavior and, if needed, a focused regression test or documentation update.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

given the following taproot descriptor, using CovExt:

eltr(
    02d7924d4f7d43ea965a465ae3095ff41131e5946f3c85f79e44adbcf8e27e080e,
    {
        and_v(
            v:spk_eq(out_spk(0), 5120d7924d4f7d43ea965a465ae3095ff41131e5946f3c85f79e44adbcf8e27e080e),
            v:value_eq(
              010000000000000000,
              out_value(0)
            )
        ),
        and_v(
            v:pk(02d7924d4f7d43ea965a465ae3095ff41131e5946f3c85f79e44adbcf8e27e080e), 
            older(512)
        )
    }
)

returns

Error: All spend paths must require a signature

does it mean that introspection only paths are not allowed ?
