agreed!  UTXO set root from the *prior* interval is the best way to go.
the whole point is it's supposed to be old, safe beyond reorg and for
lightweight sync with no centralized checkpoint producers.

i do think that incremental-hashing can be used to speed things up a lot.

Merkleized, Merklix trie, or an accumulator like Utreexo: you can maintain
the root incrementally by only touching the leaves that correspond to
changed UTXOs

should be very fast, not heavy at all
