Throughout this thread, people are using Zpub and zpub interchangeably. They are not the same thing. zpubs are for P2WPKH addresses, Zpubs are for P2WSH addresses. See here for more info: https://github.com/satoshilabs/slips/blob/master/slip-0132.md

zpubs or Zpubs are bad ideas. They should not have been created. And there are plenty of misunderstandings out there.
Since zpubs or Zpubs are already for P2WPKH or P2WSH, then what's the alphabets for taproot?
People should always use xpub and descriptor.
