The whole point of those hash prefixes is to keep the public key hidden so the quantum computer doesn't just grab it and crack the whole chain.
I swear Taproot is actually safer now because it keeps more of the key logic private, but I keep mixing up the exact fee structures for bc1p and just call it a day.
