Subject: Re: [bitcoin-dev] segwit naming ambiguity

Hey Tobin,

I would assume `is_segwit()` is true for P2TR, since Taproot is Segwit.

I'm not aware of a different term for "is P2WPKH or P2WSH" that "is Segwit v0". Maybe look into Murch's BIP about wording? He could have a better name for Segwit v0 there.

Cheers,
Antoine
